Hello Everyone,
Access 2000
I've created a bound form to a table. I've added two lookup combo boxes so
the user has a choice of how to look up a record (Individuals or
Organizations). The first is based on [LastName]. The second is based on
the [Organization]. They are both simple combo boxes (I used the combo box
wizard) based on the underlying table. The first one works fine because
every record contains a [LastName]. However, the second one, based on
[Organization], contains blank lines in the comb box list because not every
record is an Organization.
How can I filter the second combo box so that only organizations without
blank lines are listed? I built a query that lists only Organizations
without blanks, but not sure how to tie it all together.
Any ideas on how to do this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
William

Use that query as the RowSource for the ComboBox.

I've been reading about how evil Lookup fields in tables are, but I've got

Hi,
When should I use a list (in table properties: like
Ford;Mercedes;BMW;Audi )
and when should I use a lookup table??
And second question: IF I use a lookup table, should I always make a
relation (1-to-many) in my relation scheme?
Any help is greatly appreciated, I'm a bit puzzled.

I use a lookup table which contacts 2 fields (item#, name)
When a customer places an order, the order form contains a drop down to select the item by name (from the lookup table). The detail is stored by item # in a customer order table. The form displays the name, but is column bound to the item#.
When I want to create a report or form showing what the customer has ordered, I would like to display the name in a textbox control, but the...

I created an access database using access 2003 with lookup tables and I am having isues where my combo boxes on the form update the lookup table instead of the master table.
I have a query to my inventory table and the relationships are done with the query. My form points to the query.
I am guessing that either my combo box isn't done correctly or my relationship isn't done correctly.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

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.
