Setting combo box value First record

Hi

I have a combo-box which is filled with values from a query with the
current record ID as a parameter. This all works fine, except the
combobox always starts with a blank record so at first glance would
appear empty when in actual fact its filled with a number of values.

I've tried using the following but i get the error "Invalid use of
property" on the listindex line.

inpPC = InputBox("Add New Date:", "Add")
sRef = Forms!frmsites! txtSite_Ref
sSQL = "insert into C_Dates (SiteID,C_Date) values (" & sRef &
",""" & inpPC & """);"
DoCmd.RunSQL sSQL
cmbDIPC.Requery
cmbDIPC.ListInd ex (1)

Any ideas?
Thanks for any suggestions.
Paul

I have a combo box on a form which is based on table tblMachine. On that combo box I have four columns visible MachineNumber, description, location and type. The bound column is the MachineNumber and this is not set to 0 as the machines have its number on which means the user should know the machine number. My problem is if the user doesn't know the number. I have a button which changes the row source of the combo box to order by...

Hi, Can anyone tell me how the initial value displayed in Combo Box is determined when a form is opened? I am loading the dropdown from one field ("CategoryName") of a table, with "ORDER BY ". The values in the dropdown are loaded in the correct order, but the initial value is not the first row of the dropdown as I expected. The field "CategoryName" is not the primary key for the table -- the PK is

I am used to VB6 but need to develop something in .Net. I need to create several bound combo-boxes which will use lookup tables to get their values. I created a form using the dataform wizard. As part of the setup, I specified a new dataset, which included the data & lookup tables. I also specified the relationships when required. I then added a combo box control to my form, following the instructions from

A couple of easy questions here hopefully. I've been working on two different database projects which make use of multiple forms. 1. Where's the best/recommended placement for command buttons for things like delete, save, edit, cancel buttons - in the footer, or on the form detail section? 2. If in the footer, how do you add them to the tab order?

I have a main form called frmDemo with a subform frmStageTrack_Sub. On the subform is a Combo Box CboTermID. The frmDemo is tied to tblDemo and the frmStageTrack_Sub is tied to tblStageTrack. What I would like to do is when a new record is created in frmDemo I would like to set the CboTermID on the subform to a default value, say 1, without the user having to set focus on the subform and selecting an item from the combo box. Right now...

I have a form with two combo boxes. The value chosen in the first combo box (cbo1) is supposed to change the values that appear in the second combo box (cbo2). This currently works great for the first record entered by the user (continuous forms). However in the second record, cbo2 shows the values influenced by cbo1 in the first record, rather than the 2nd record (i.e. it doesn't update). My problem may be that both combo boxes have...

So I have a subform that lists the various items on a particular invoice. First, the user selects a product class from the Class dropdown. This is bound to the Class field in the InvioceLines table. The rowsource for the combobox is: ClassName, ClassID, ClassSort from the Class table, with the bound column set to ClassID.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
