OK, can someone please help me out here? I feel that once this issue gets solved for me I'll be able to proceed pretty quickly. I have attached a very simple database as an example.
A few questions:
Anyway, I think I'm close. Have a look at my setup and let me know what the issue(s) are.
- Is my design "correct"?
- In a subform, I want to populate a text box with a combo box value. As it stands now, there are 2 things I am doing simultaneously in testing this. I am making the combo box the Control Source for the text box. However, the "Column" part does not pop up when I build the expression and it gives me an error when I put it there. Anyway, this works to a point - the text box is populated with the first column of the combo box, but that's it. I want the 3rd column.
- Also, I put in an AfterUpdate event procedure Me.TextBox = Me.ComboBox.Column(2). This does not impact the results unless I change the Control Source for the text box to something else, or make it unbound. I used to get an error (related to ActiveX Controls) but now nothing happens. The combo box is fine but the text box is blank.
Thanks!
