Hi,
I have a form with three combo boxes: Area, Sub-Area, and Factor. I've set up the Sub-Area combo box to list only those areas that are part of the selected area. I've set up the Factor combo box to list only those factors that are part of the selected sub-area.
For example, if I select area 1.0, the Sub-Area combo box displays 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3 as options. It does not show 2.1, 3.1, etc.
If I select area 2.0, the Sub-Area combo box displays only 2.1, not 1.1, 1.2, 3.1, etc.
I think you get the idea.
The combo boxes are working properly and the data is being stored in the table correctly. However, when I go back and view the records through my form, the combo boxes are empty. When I click on the empty combo box, the correct value is highlighted in the list... it just wasn't showing when I first look at the record.
Any ideas on how to have the combo boxes correctly populate with the stored values?

Huzzah!
I replaced the macros with VBA such that in the "After Update" event of a combo box I requery the next combo box down the line. This still left me with the original problem of invisible values when navigating through records.
I fixed that by requerying each of the combo boxes in the form's "On Current" event.
Thanks so much for your help neo and linq.

Hi there,
I am working on a form that uses 3 text boxes and 3 combo boxes.
When any data is entered into any of these, I click a command button
and this requeries a sub query in the form and displays data dependent
on what has been typed in.
After having trouble with populating my second combo box (I eventually
populated it by putting the fields for both combo boxes in 1 separate
query) I am now having problems with the 3rd one and am...

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

I have a form which is bound to a dataset. I am filling the forms dataset on Form_Load event.
On my form I have combo boxes which I am setting by running a stored procedure to return a datatable, which I then assign to the datasource.
Some of my combo box datasources depend on values in other fields to limit the options.
For example, I have a sales rep list that is limited by the customer selected in the customers combo box.

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.
