I am having a problem working with one combo box that is filtering
another combo box.
My table is tblResearch. There are two field in this table; one
is[StudyCategory] and the other [Study]. I have a form called
frmResearch on which there are two combo boxes. The control source
for the first combo box [cbxCategory] is the field StudyCategory. The
control source for the 2nd combo box, [cbxStudy] is the field Study
and it's row source is a query called qrySelect. qrySelect selects
all studies where the category = cbxCategory from a table called
luStudies. When cbxCategory is updated, cbxStudy is requeried.
All works well unless the user decides that they want to delete what
they have entered into these boxes and leave it as blank. When they do
this (by highlighting the option in cbxCategory and pressing delete)
the update event requeries cbxStudy and it becomes blank as well.
This gives the user the impression that they have now deleted anything
that is in the underlying table. This is true for the StudyCategory
field, but the Study field retains whatever data they had previously
chosen.
How can I get the table get rid of the data in the field Study if the
user chooses to do the above?

In the AfterUpdate event of the primary combo you could enter something like
If IsNull(Me.Prima ryCombo) Then
Me.SecondaryCom bo = Null
ENdif
Me.SecondaryCom bo.Requery This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

Hello all,
I just discovered something (stop me if you've heard this before....) that
was causing me a significant performance hit when opening a form with
subforms.
To speed up loading the form, I set the rowsources of its, and its
subforms', combo boxes in the "Enter" events of the combo boxes. That's the
standard trick for not loading the rowsource unless/until the user actually
needs the combo box. For example:

Hi folks.
I am using Access 97. I have a form, frmHistory, which has 2 combo
boxes (cboSelectTitle and cboSelectName) and 2 text boxes (Title and
MemName). When the form is opened, it displays all the (dummy) history
of books borrowed by members. Both the combo boxes uses macros, with
the following actions.

Hi Everyone-
I have a question about how to add and then use the "All" selection in
a combo box. I am trying to figure out how to:
(1) add "All" as a selection to a combo box and then
(2) how to use the selection "All" as criteria for a field in a
query, which is used to generate data for a report.

I have 3 tables of information feeding into 4 combo boxes on my main

to the combo box selection using SQL. Here is an example from the

I decided to install Office 2003 Service Pack 3 on my home computer to test

I have noticed that with a small database I wrote for home, the combo boxes

combo box are ID and Surname. The combo box and list box...

I have created a sub routine to programmatically add an indefinite number of
combo boxes to a form. The combo boxes are bound in code to a view for
displaying the available options. This routine works good until you add the
second combo box. At that point it changes the first combo box's selected
item. A third changes the second and first and so on. I've tried setting
the combo box name and tag to a unique name, but that doesn't help. ...

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
