Hi,
I am filling in a combobox. I would like to concatenate two fields into the
data combo box and display "last name, first name"
I tried to displaymember = "employee_last_ name" & ", " &
"employee_last_ name", but it did not like that.
I can fill the combo box with either the first or the last, but I cannot
manage to concatenate it.
Any suggestions? My code is below.
'fill employee combo box.
strsql = "SELECT * FROM Employee order by employee_last_n ame"
' Create data adapter object
Dim daEmployee As OleDbDataAdapte r = New OleDbDataAdapte r(strsql,
TSA.conn)
' Create a dataset object and fill with data using data adapter's
Fill method
Dim dsEmployee As DataSet = New DataSet
daEmployee.Fill (dsEmployee, "Employee")
' Attach dataset's DefaultView to the datagrid control
Dim dvEmployee As DataView = dsEmployee.Tabl es("Employee"). DefaultView
ComboBox5.DataS ource = dvEmployee
ComboBox5.Displ ayMember = "employee_first _name"
Thanks in Advance!!

Try concatenating the names in the query with an assigned column name,
and list the specific columns you want instead of using *, which pulls
every column.

How would I then change the .displaymember? It does not read the data view,
nor can I pull concatenated fields.
Thanks,

He meant do something like this:
Select Employee_Last_N ame + ', ' + Employee_First_ Name AS Employee_Full_N ame
FROM Employees ORDER BY Employee_Last_N ame
....and then use Employee_Full_N ame as your display member.

In a query I have the fields Letter, Prefix, and Surname. I need to make a

When I do this:

it will only concatenate the fields if all fields have a value, which is not
what I want.
If this problem was solved I guess I would face another problem being that
there will be 2 spaces in a row between the Letter value and Surname value...

I've seen how to use VBA code to concatenate two fields into a third by
using an expression in the "After Update" property in fields 1 & 2.
field3 = field1 + field2
The above code would go into both fields 1 and 2.
Here's the problem: It is possible that field1 may be blank (or may be
made empty by the user). In this case, tabbing out of field1 (after
emptying it, for example) also empties field3. Now tabbing out of

Hello,
I have a combo box in which I want to display multiple fields by concatenating the fields together. If one of those concatenated fields is Null, then the combo box does not show anything. To rectify this I have created IIf statements to check if certain fields are Null and remove those fields from the concatenation. The problem I am having is how to check if multiple fields are Null. I think I need to use AND in my code, but cannot...
