Help with combo boxes to make reports.

3 New Member
Hello,

I’m kind of new to Access 97 so please bear with me.

I have a form with four combo boxes linked to a union query. It’s a start date, end date, User, and system

What I am trying to do is, by there selections in the combo boxes I want to use the query to populate a report with the matching information.

All the combo boxes are populating with the correct information I just need to know the proper VB coding for the submit button.

Thank you.

Before we try to spell it out for you, guessing your field names and such, try using the button wizard to see how close you can get. When you add a button to your form, one of the wizard options is to launch a report.

The wizard leads you through the process to do exactly what you want.

Actually I don't remember well what is in Access 97, so I could be wrong for that version. If necessary, you might try loading Access 2000 or 2003 and do the same thing, then if you must work in 97, just apply the same code; you can probably even copy and paste the code from 2000/2003 to 97.

That's good advice from Jim. If you want an understanding of how it works though, have a look at Example Filtering on a Form.

I have a page where I have some combo boxes on it. A click on each one spawns another box, and another until each area has been selected, or until they choose to pull all items into a datagrid from that category. For instance: say the first combo has in it: meat dairy

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.

I have synchronized combo boxes linking Account Type with Customer Names based on the template that Microsoft has in one of its samples databases. There are the appropriate relationships between the Account Type Table and the Customer Name Table based on the ID field, so it is the ID field which is stored in the main table. However, in the form, the Account Type and Customer Name are displayed because the column width property has been...

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