I have a simple form, frmProduct, with a combo box, cboStatus, that has
2 choices: "Active" and "Inactive." If I chose "Inactive," then I want
another combo box to appear, cboInactiveStatus, which has the following
choices: "Transferred" or "Sold."
How do I make the combo box, cboInactiveStatus, invisible until
"Inactive" is chosen in the first combo box, cboStatus?
Here is some additional info on my tables:
tblStatus
A Active
I Inactive
tblInactiveStatus
T Transferred
S Sold
Thanks a bunch,
Megan 5 4660
Megan,
You need just 1 line of code here:
Me!cboInactiveStatus.visible=Me!cboStatus ="Inactive"
Use the code in the form's OnCurrent-event and in cboStatus_AfterUpdate

Hope this helps

Megan,
While the other solution posted will do want you want...why?
If the choices you listed are the only ones that will be available,
wouldn't it be simpler to have the first combo-box have 3 options:
A Active
IT Inactive - Transferred
IS Inactive - Sold
This would then make reporting a very simple process too.
Just a thought.
Mal.
I keep getting a Runtime Error 13: Type Mismatch.
My tables have the following columns:
tblStatus
StatusID (PK & Text) StatusDesc (Text)
A Active
I Inactive
tblInactiveStatus
InactiveStatusID (PK & Text) InactiveStatusDesc (Text)
T Transferred
S Sold
In my row source for my combo box, cboStatus, I include both the PK,
StatusID, and the description, StatusDescription, but I hide the PK
field (as suggested in the combo box wizard). So, should I be using "I"
instead of "Inactive" since the combo box is storing the PK? However
when I do that, I still get the same run-time error 13. Should I use an
number like '1" as my PK instead of text like "I?"
Thanks!
Megan
I just added the following code to the On Current Event of my form:
Me!cboInactiveStatus.Visible = False
And I added the following code to the After Update Event of my combo
box, cboStatus:
If Me!cboStatus = "I" Then
Me!cboInactiveStatus.Visible = True
End If
Thanks for the advice!
Megan
Good point! I just came from a meeting and maybe I was over-analyzing
the whole matter! DUH!
