Pat, Thank you that worked well. Except I had to delete the = True to get it to work. When I ran the debug it kept hanging there.
Let me follow this up with two questions. What does Me stand for? I looked in the book I have and it does not mention it, though I have seen and used it previously.
Also, I need to further code for this possibility. That someone chooses option 3 for Incident Status, as in the previous example, but then chooses option 6 for ExceptionalClearance, which is Not Applicable. The two are mutually exclusive. I have been playing with the code, and tried this on the BeforeUpdate event for the form:
If Me.IncidentStatus = 3 And Me.ExceptionalClearance = 6 Then
MsgBox "You have indicated that the Incident Status was Cleared Exceptionally but have not designated a type of exception. Please correct this"
Me.ExceptionalClearance.SetFocus
End If
To no avail. I really appreaciate your help. I am trying to get a handle on this so I don't have to ask so many questions.
Thanks,
Peter Paul
