    Adding New Values to a Combo Box, but ID numbers are showing up, not the names!

    Adding New Values to a Combo Box

    Hi pbaldy: I don't quite understand what you mean by changing the setting. Do you mean change "limittolist" from No to Yes? I tried that and nothing happens. Is there an Event Procedure I need to enter? P.S.: I kind of new to Access and am using 2003

So far, I have 2 positions listed: Buyers, and Assistant Buyers. That is all that will be required for this workshop. However, there could be a strong possibility...

    Search pop-up dialog box for a report

    :eek: I have this really neat database of projects that my department has completed, and now I want to make it very user-friendly so that anyone in the department can use it. I have a switchboard that lists the different "business channels" in the company (if you click on any one of the bus...

    Creating Reports based on a filter

    I have a database that captures all the documents we create for training purposes. I've created queries so that reports can be run off by business channels (and it's all nice and neat on a switchboard - click the business channel you want, and there's the report of all documents for that...

    Need a duplicate value to appear

    Mark, unfortunately, because the document is the same in both project, it didn't make sense to have 2 different stock numbers for the same document (let's not confuse more people than we have to). How do you change the rules to allow duplicates? Thank you.

    Need a duplicate value to appear

    I have a database that controls what projects we are working on and what documents are tied up to that particular project. Each document has a 5-digit stock number for ordering (a number for English, and a number for French). These numbers are unique to each document (no duplicates allowed)...

    Adding to a Combo Box

    I'm almost finished with my database in Access 97, but for one little problem. I have a combo list box that will require additions to it. Instead of going back to the table that controls that combo box, I want to be able to type the new information into the field and have it automatically...

    Elana, I took your advice and read those 2 articles from the MS Knowledge Base. I ran the sample database to see what these macros do - it's exactly what I wanted. I applied the principles to my database in the English and French fields ... AND IT WORKS!!!!!! Thank you so much to pointing me...

    Duplicate Values

    Elana, Thank you for your assistance. The suggestions you made were most helpful regarding entry validation. However, that was not quite what I was looking for. The Primary Key, ENGLISH, is set to Index: Yes (no duplicates) There will always be an entry (stock number) in this field, because...

    I want to prevent users from keying in duplicate values in 2 fields in an Access 97 database that holds stock numbers used in our department's printed materials (numbers are used for others to order the materials). As our materials are printed in English and French, the fields are called...
