    The text you entered isn't an item in the list

    Hi guys, my first post, and I'm hoping I'm just missing something really simple here. I had a Access 2007 desktop database with linked tables, with a main form containing combo boxes showing info from other tables. I was able, by using the "NotInList" event from the combo boxes to automatically add new values, typed by the user, into these tables.

    Now, I'm trying to migrate the database to Access 2010 Web database, but the combo boxes no longer have "NotInList" event? What am I missing here?



    Is it still possible to fire some kind of event * Before Update * so one can respond appropriately?

    Really appreciate any help. Thanks.

    You can't have VBA in a web database, so it may have stripped it out for you. See if this helps:

    Thanks. I'll give that a try a little later. Looks like what I was looking for.
