then after that codes:

 

"AND tblTopic.Topic_ID = tblThread.Topic_ID " & _
"AND tblAuthor.Author_ID = tblThread.Author_ID " & _
"AND tblForum.Forum_ID = tblPermissions.Forum_ID " & _

 

add that bold code :

 

 

like that;

 

"AND tblTopic.Topic_ID = tblThread.Topic_ID " & _
"AND tblAuthor.Author_ID = tblThread.Author_ID " & _
"AND tblForum.Forum_ID = tblPermissions.Forum_ID " & _

 

change 25 to forum id  that you want...

 

Any way we make this code run in Marque style if you know what I mean.

 

sorry i cant understand!
