Hello.. I'm just getting a handle on all this Access stuff (thanks mostly to these kickass forums 
)... And I've run across a little problem...
I'm updating a database that stores information on various companies, and the table that stores the company info has a field called [Company Sector] which contains one of 'Industry' or 'Service'..
Now the trouble: I have a form setup to view the information for the companies, but my boss wants me to have a way of filtering out either all the Service or all the Industry buisnesses. I can't for the life of me figure out how to do this.. I've got a combo-box setup on the form with the two options (thats How I'd like to select it), but I can't figure out how to get it to set the filter...
I'm guessing there's a bit of code I can stick into the 'After Update' field, but I'm not sure what I should be setting..
If soemone could either gimmie a hand setting this up, or point me in the right direction for an answer that'd be great...
Any help for an Access Newbie would be much appreciated!
-Thanks
