    Combobox Confusion

    I guess the real question is 'how do I make a selection in a combobox programmatically?'

    Combobox Confusion

    On my form(a), I have a combobox with ten columns. When a selection is made, the rest of the fields on the form(a) fill, based on the column values. My problem comes when the value for the combobox is passed from another form(b). It looks like it gets the value, but fails to fill in the rest...

    I don't, I just put those in to make things easier to read.

    syntax for number?

    Fuck a duck. I did it like this: strWhere = strWhere & "TSP.[CEAID] = " & ctl.ItemData(varItem) & Chr(32) & " Or " as MSAR suggested and I had tried before. The SQL looked ok. So I put it into a query and tried to run it. At this point Access reminded me that I had the table open. So...

    syntax for number?

    This: strWhere = strWhere & "TSP.[CEAID] = " & ctl.ItemData(varItem) & " & Chr(32) & " Or """" gives me an error 13 type mismatch this: strWhere = strWhere & "TSP.[CEAID] = ctl.ItemData(varItem)" & Chr(32) & " Or " inserts ctl.ItemData(varItem) into the string, as opposed to the...

    syntax for number?

    this is not right, as it doesnt work: strWhere = strWhere & "TSP.[CEAID] = #" & ctl.ItemData(varItem) & "#" & Chr(32) & " Or """ I put a watch on strWhere, and it shows up as WHERE TSP.[CEAID] = #7# I just want to flag ctl.ItemData(varItem) as a number, so I dont get the 13 mistype error...

    Grabbing Autonumber before update

    Well I just kept clicking submit until the number reached new numbers. No idea why it chose to randomly start with record 15, but now that we are caught up, this works. So I say solved! YOU CAN GRAB AUTONUMBERS!:eek:

    Are you an atheist?

    1. I don't see Infinitely complex system as an analogy, this is my string-theory+ of choice. No more an analogy than any god. An arbitrary word construct, representive of an idea I might concede, but we're not arguing linguistics. 2. RE: my comfortability with process. I'm not sure sure I...

    Are you an atheist?

    eh, nothing really. I meant to reference Ptolemy's (and more famously Copernicus) model of the solar system, and their notion of the 'epicycle' to explain the apparent retrograde motion of planetary bodies. While these notions were adequate to explain the observable celestial phenomena of the...

    Are you an atheist?

    although hesitant to call myself an atheist, I will answer as such, and concede that I've been to lazy to read this thread in its entirety. So this may have been touched on. I've never thought of these remarkable patterns as anymore than ptolemaic discriptions of an infinitely complex system...

    Woodburning Grill?

    ahh fantastic! i had hoped as much. So on with the questions. I understand that wood is often added to charcoal to improve flavour, but I think I'd like to just use logs. I hear this could lead to uneven heating problems or the like. Any input 50? My plan went as such. 1. get some fine...

    Woodburning Grill?

    I always wanted one too. My greatgrandfather had one, so I could prolly consult family, but I'd really rather not talk to them. I've never done any masonry, but I dont think mine will need any. likely just a new grate and some cleaning. someone said you put wood below a stone, then grill...

    Woodburning Grill?

    So I found an old grill in my backyard, not unlike www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php?topic=5725.0 The question I pose, is how might I repair a thing like this? By Saturday. Admittedly mine is in much better shape than the one above. still has a front wall, and a few pieces of stone/concrete...
