Hi. Windows XP + Access 2002.
I have three tables.
tblMakes
=======
MakeKey (PK)
Make
tblModels
=======
ModelKey (PK)
MakeKey (FK to tblMakes.MakeKe y)
Model
tblDetails
=======
DetailKey (PK)
ModelKey (FK to tblModels.Model Key)
Description
etc etc
A form has a cascading combo that lists MakeKey and Make.
User selects the Make and cboModel lists MakeKey, ModelKey, Model.
Selecting a Model stored ModelKey in tblDetails.
When a user moves between records cboModel shows the real name for the stored ModelKey. What's not happening is that I want cboMake to show the relevant Make of vehicle depending on the value of ModelKey.
I'm stuck at the moment and have been working on this for weeks. I seem to be going around in circles.
I would appreciate any guidance in how to achieve the result I'm after.
Many thanks in advance.
Shane

Have a look at Example Filtering on a Form, and if you're still stuck after that (It has example db and code) come back and we'll see what we can do for you.
Tks for the response NeoPa.
I'm sorry but I don't see the relationship between the posted example and my problem. I have two combo boxes cascading. The second combo is bound to a field and shows the person friendly value while the field stores the numeric value. I need the first combo box (unbound) to display a value based on a value stored in the field that the second combo is bound to. I also need it to change as the user moves from record to record. The problem I'm mainly having is that when the user creates a new record the cascading combos break when then go to previous or first record.
I hope this helps. If not I'll attach an example.
Tks for you help.
Regards
Shane

I think I'm struggling with the idea that cascading ComboBoxes need a two-way link.
Surely, the available contents of cboModel are determined by the selected value in cboMake?
There could (should) never be a way of selecting a value of model in cboModel which does not conform to the make selected in cboMake.

Hi everyone,
Please let there be someone out there who can help.
I have two BOUND combo boxes on a continuous form, the second being
dependent on the first. I have no problem getting the second combo to
change depending on what values the user selects in the first box, it's
just that every time the user changes the first combobox, the second
combobox FOR EVERY RECORD goes blank.

Hi Everyone.
I've been having a little touble with a form I'm working on. (I'm a MS Access hobbiest). I've set up the cascading combo boxes, which is working, (I took the code from Microsoft) on a single item form.
However as the form I need is a of tabular type, every time I update cbo1 to a value, the non matching cbo1's cbo2 field blanks out. The data remains as but is hidden, and not what I need.
The data is all linked to bound...

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,...
