Combo Box, Subform, Text Box - Relationships/Filter

19
What I am trying to do is select an item from the combo box and have it displayed in the subform. Then once you scroll though the subform and find the field you like, click on it and it will automatically be transferred to a text box.

I have created a 3-step image demonstrating how it should look.

Also I have the information behind the subform linked together as a foreign key in a relationship.

Please help me see what I am doing wrong, thank you.

Hi W.

You could write in subform control's on double-click event a code like this:

Dim TransferValue As variant
TransferValue=Me!SubformControlName

Forms!MainForm.SetFocus

If Forms!MainFormTOC1="" Then Forms!MainFormTOC1=TransferValue
Else
If Forms!MainFormTOC2="" Then Forms!MainFormTOC2=TransferValue
Else
Forms!MainFormTOC3=TransferValue
End If

Hope this helps...
