I have a combo box based on a value list:
Row Source: is a list of values "A","C","B","H",...
Row Source Type: Value List
There is no table, query, or SQL behind this combo box. How do I alphabetize the list of values in the Row Source without having to reconstruct the application? This is a canned application downloaded from Microsoft, Access 2010.
Thanks,
Ernie
 
not possible without storing the values in a table. Do you have control over the design or is it locked down? Easy to just create a quick table with one field and the values in it.
 
Thanks very much. I will do as you suggest.

Well actually it is possible and not particularly difficult. It would be done by parsing the RowSource string. It just would be an unlikely choice to use that technique when a table or recordset can be used.
