How Do You Populate A Bound Textfield With Text From A Unbound Textfield? (1 Viewer)

[gcoaster]

Hello *.*

Can someone please help, after hours and hours I am turning for help..

I have 4 fields that are unbound on a form.
img1 img2 img3 img4

When these are entered they are all combined and autofill another unbound textbox = imagename

SIMPLE?
what i would like to do is from this unbound textbox 'imagename'

i would like to populate a textbox that IS bound called FileName

i have tried EVERYTHING, well almost everything!

Am I Close?
[Event Procedure]
Private Sub imagename_Click()
Me.imagename = Me.FileName
End Sub

try

Me.FileName=Me.imagename

'doesn't work' is not very helpful, please explain what is not working - do you get an error? or it puts in a different value or what?

Hello,
Yea 'doesn't work' didnt help me much either!

I figured it out after 2 days,.. I fixed it than stared at the screen for a minute and uttered 'Seriously?'

I had to go to FILE than enable content, it was a security setting protecting me against myself i guess...

No warnings, No hints why Event Procedures would not work.
Event Procedures just plain did not work..

Will post more question soon I am sure, access is not very friendly at all, But you guys are!


Thank you CJ_London
