Hello All,
I've made a successful career of prowling the community looking for answers,
but this is the first time I've ever posted -- I'm absolutely desperate!
There was one string of messages that addressed this issue in 2004, but it
was never completed and hasn't helped me. I am working on a database that
will used to input data every quarter. In order to make the tedious process
as user-friendly as possible, I am trying to set the form up to make it just
so.
The form, which is bound to the table, is essentially a series of combo
boxes each with defined options, to avoid mistakes. In order to limit
errors, I have two combo boxes, one of which I'd like to make dependent on
the other.
I would like the options in cboSubCategory to be based on the user's input
to cboCategory. I would like all the input to be recorded in my data (right
now, cboCategory is unbound, and cboSubCategory is bound; remember, the form
itself is also bound -- I keep pointing this out because I think it makes a
difference? It might not, but I'd really like to find out!)
What can I do?? Thank-you in advance for any help!
