Hi, I realise that this question has been asked a thousand times on earlier occasions. However, I have searched and searched, read and read, trialed and trialed without success. Most questions and responses are way above my limited experience. I am missing the point completely!
All I need to do is to be able to select a suburb from a combo box on the form. One of my questions (and there are many) at this point, is if it were to work, the postcode field shouldn't have to be a combo, should it?
Unfortunately, the file is loo large to upload (how do you guys shrink them?). However, will upload a jpg of the form. I'll email the db, if anyone wants it! When it works finally, I would like to understand why ... because at the moment I do not understand why all the "stuff" (I know this is not a db term ... lol) does not work!
Tables are
lookupfield (for all info for combo boxes including suburb col3 and postcode col4)
clients (name, address etc) <---- here the combos for suburb and postcode are activated (at the moment .. on this copy anyway)
and another one which has no bearing on this case
Thank you in advance!
