Hello and thank you for any attention my post may receive.

Windows
Access 2013

I am trying to open a form (frmApproveInitiate) from another form (frmPassword). The user enters the ID number into Text0 on frmPassword and then OK. I added a second criteria where only open the form if table 'Main' fields 'ID' matches and the corresponding field 'Expected Duration' value is > 12.

My code returns Run-time error '2465': can't find field '|1' referred to in the expression. The line of code which has the issue is highlighted in bold below.

My unsuccessful code so far is this:
Code:
Private Sub Command3_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_Command3_Click
    If IsNull(Me.Text0) Or Me.Text0 = "" Then 'Check that textbox is not Null and not a zero length string
     MsgBox "Whoa there.  You have forgotten to enter an Override ID.  Please answer 'OK' then try again."
     Me.Text0.SetFocus
 '    Cancel = True
     Exit Sub
End If
If DCount("ID", "Main", "ID = " & Me.Text0) = 0 Then 'Check that the input ID exists
     MsgBox "Please enter a valid Override ID"
     Me.Text0.SetFocus
 '    Cancel = True
     Exit Sub
End If
[B]If DCount("ID", "Main", "ID = " & Me.Text0 And [Expected Duration] > 12) = 1 Then[/B]
     MsgBox "You do not have authority to approve this Override."
     Me.Text0.SetFocus
     Exit Sub
End If
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmApproveInitiate", , , , datamode:=acFormEdit, windowmode:=acDialog
Me.Text0.Value = ""
Exit_Command3_Click:
    Exit Sub
Err_Command3_Click:
    MsgBox Err.Description
    Resume Exit_Command3_Click
End Sub

Thank you and have a great day.
 

Excel Facts

Did you know Excel offers Filter by Selection?
Add the AutoFilter icon to the Quick Access Toolbar. Select a cell containing Apple, click AutoFilter, and you will get all rows with Apple
Hello,

Is it VBA for Excel ... or VBA for Access ...?

I *think* there is an errant closing bracket in the where_string?

Code:
dim where_string as string 
where_string = "ID = " & Me.Text0 & " And [Expected Duration] > 12) " 
debug.print where_string 


If DCount( "ID", "Main", where_string ) = 1 Then

Thank you all for your replies. I had my punctuation and brackets in the incorrect place. Thank you for your help......much appreciated!

Code:
If DCount("ID", "Main", "ID = " & Me.Text0) = 1 And DCount("ID", "Main", "[ExpectedDuration] > 12") = 1 Then
