Continuous Forms

[Dragnog]

Hello all,
I was just wondering if someone knew if an array of controls was created on a continuous form and if so can you address these indvidually?
If you have an unbound combo box on a continuous form, when you select the value for one instance it changes the value for all of them. I want to be able to set the value for each instance.

Drag,

You probably don't want to hear that continuous forms are somewhat
limited in this area. "Unbound" controls do not work well with them.
They do support Conditional Formatting, so you can give individual records
a unique look depending on content.

Thanks for the info Wayne. I thought that this was probably the case, I just wish I was allowed to the development for this in VB! I think I will have to use a different approach.

D,

Can you post a sample of what you're trying to do?

What version of Access do you have?
