Right my drop down box in my data base basicly alows me to select a name (user# ID) and from it it poulates the rest of the form with the infomation on that selection.. name, department, IT asset number, ((all info basicly))

but heres the problem.. when recreating it so it is accesable via web the drop down shows all the names but dosnt populate the rest of the info ((dosnt retrive)).. infact on click it dosnt even show in drop down selection box...

I'm no web developer, but I suspect that what you are seeing in Access itself, but not in your web-facing application, are items that are part of standard Access functionality.

When using the Access database as a back-end system (simple data repository) you do not get the same features as when it is used as the front-end too. These would need to be provided by your web based code. I'm afraid that is a question for another forum I expect - depending on what you are using to code that in.

I am working on creating an editable grid (for use in adding, deleting, and editing rows back to an Oracle database). I have a JSP that posts back to a servlet, which in turns posts to a WebLogic SFSB and, from there, to the database. On the front end, all cells appear as text fields. However, for certain cells, when the user clicks on the cell, the text field turns into a drop-down field (i.e. Select object), defaulting to the value...

Hi There! I have a Server-side Drop-down box in ASP.NET (VB) page. What do I do to widen the Drop down box's Pull-Down list's width? I'm not talking about the Drop-down box's width but the box that appear when user clicks the drop-down arrow button. Because items in the Drop down list are a little long, user can't see the full thing when they pull down the items from the drop down list.

These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
