using combo box

8 New Member
Hi anyone know how to display all files in a folder for selection.
For example, i would like to select a file in a folder for process. Instead of hard code it to the program, i would like to use listbox or combo box to to display the files avaliable and select the file.

Thanks.

Acc97. I have a form which within a subform records machine down time. I have a total of 8 machines. (1-2-3 ect.) What I have been doing is using a combo box linked to the record table to select, the reasons based upon generic terms. The problem is that I have so many records now, that it takes more time looking and picking out the correct fault reason than it does completing the rest of the form!

Hello, In Access ADP's that connect to SQL Server databases, any time I have a situation where I have a combo box in a main form that looks up a record in a subform, the subform record source has to be based on either a View or a Table. I can almost always use a View, and it helps to do this since I can have better control over the size of the RecordSet of the subform. There are times when the use of a Stored Procedure would give me...

Hello, I'm curious if anyone knows of a way (if one exists) to tell a form (in Access 2002 VBA) to sort on an unbound column of a combo box on the form. Here's what I want to do: A combo box on my form contains a category ID (bound column, not visible, long integer) for the items listed on the form and a description (unbound column, visible, string.) I can "Sort Ascending" and "Sort Descending" on the visible description in the...

Hi All Can anybody pls help me out with this problem. I have a combo box control which has about 10,000 values in it. These values in the combo box are called from a different table. When i use a value(1 out of 10000) in the combo box for a particular record say Record1, this value should no longer be displayed for the next new record say Record2 and the combo box should just display only 9999 values. I am trying to do this, just...

Hi Everyone- I am trying to use a simple macro to set the value of a combo box on a form, and I can't get it to work. I have a macro with 2 actions: OpenForm and SetValue. I can open my form, but I can't get the macro to set the value of a combo box on the form that opens. I don't need the macro to look up any values, I just want it to set the value of a combo box.

Hello, I am trying to create a chart whose underlying query is linked to 2 combo boxes on the same form. I want to pass the values from the combo boxes into the chart query to allow the chart data to be manipulated easily. The combo box uses "Row Source Type" = Table/Query. The "Row Source" references a query to extract a distinct list of data.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: 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,...
