Here's the SQL.

sqlstmt = "SELECT * FROM T_WORK_ORDER WHERE WKOR_LOAD_DATE >= [forms]![frm_Switchboard]![LastEmailDate]"

Set rst = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(sqlstmt)

I get a 3061 error "Too few arguments Expected 1" on the Set rst? The form is open and there is a value in the field LastEmailDate

I get the same error when passing the query in the set statement. That also uses that field as a parameter. That's why I switched it to SQL. The SQL works fine in the MS Access query builder but doesn't work in this situation.

What did Pito Salas invent?
Pito Salas, working for Lotus, popularized what would become to be pivot tables. It was released as Lotus Improv in 1989.
You have to put the reference outside of the quotes and use octothorpes (#) for dates:

sqlstmt = "SELECT * FROM T_WORK_ORDER WHERE WKOR_LOAD_DATE >=#" & [forms]![frm_Switchboard]![LastEmailDate] & "#"
