    importing table, multiple list boxes with subform

    Mike, To Zip the file... Try Tools, Database Utilities , Compact and repair database. Then try to zip it. That will shrink the database down to a smaller size. From your post: "Populated Box 1- click on Name of Song Populated Box 2 click on Name of Hymnal, only displays hymnals from that...

    populating combo box

    Mike, Maybe I am not thinking clearly. :confused: If you have a combo or list box that you can select the different type of hymnals in it, and then a subform which shows which songs are in that hymnal, does this not accomplish what you are trying to do? Why would you need two list boxes...

    Ahh! There you will have to delve into Combo Boxes Based on Other Combo Boxes. Take a look at those threads to give you an idea of what to do. Or you could have a bunch of IF or Case statements in the Combo boxes, such as stating that since you selected a Dwarf, you cannot be a Mage, etc.

    importing csv to a table

    Lubos, If you want to dynamically name the file to be imported, I suggest that you create your own topic with that title "Dynamically named CSV imported into Access" or something like that.

    My computer will not let me import a text file that looks like an Excel file. "Run time Error 31519 You cannot import this file." ****** Sometimes, helping people rethink their lives will make yours better! :eek: Maybe your company needs to rethink the whole strategy of why you are importing...

    Ok when I look at this, this is not a complex database. This is a simple database. Sorry if I have confused you. You will not need to have ID numbers in the Gender, Class, Professions tables. You just list the Professions in their table. You will have one main table to enter data to...

    importing csv to a table

    You can import a CSV file, but why would a csv file have an xls extension? Wouldn't it then be an Excel spreadsheet? The DoCmd.TransferText option is what you use to import or export text files from/into Access. In a command button I setup: DoCmd.TransferText acImportDelim, , "Invoices"...

    Option Box Problem

    RuralGuy, Wouldn't you want the AfterUpdate event? That way the msgbox or whatever she uses to alert that the box(es) are unchecked pops up?

    Patrick, Don't over think what you want to do ;) You were mostly on the right track with your sample. Create the Character table. Just list out ALL the options that you can have for that each character. Setup the Profession table with all the available professions. The Class table with all...

    Serch function help

    From what I played with, the sample you have will return with a blank also. And then you cannot do anything, except return to all entries. The sample just doesn't blank out visually. I would try to limit my search to a specific field or find a different search sample.

    Advanced search form

    You wouldn't necessarily have to put in a separate code for each SQL. But the Case would help make the SQL code. From one of the sample Databases (from Kenhiggs I think) on this site. From a On Click event on a button strSQL = strSQL & " or " & "(tblMyData.my_color)='" &...

    populating combo box

    It looks like to me you have a great setup for a form/subform instead of list boxes. With your table design and the one to many relationships from Hymnal to Hymnal songs, you should have an easy time setting this up. Why try to make something hard if you don't have to? :)
