However, i only managing to open the report once in one session. When i click the search button 2nd time i get the parameters window and i get an error on the following line of code:

CRLViewer1.ReportSource = crlrep            'where crlrep is CRAXDRT.report

The bollow is my full code for the search button:

Private Sub cmdDepartmentSearch_Click()
Dim tbl As CRAXDRT.DatabaseTable
Dim sserver As String
Dim sDatabase As String
Dim SDBusername As String
Dim sDBPassword As String
Dim FromDate, ToDate As String
cd = (format(DTPicker4.value, "yyyyMMdd"))
cd1 = (format(DTPicker5.value, "yyyyMMdd"))
