hi Isac,
you're welcome! wonderful, thanks for letting me now.
> similar parameter configuration for a look up on a table?
not exactly sure what you're asking
... to reference a column of a combobox value, use
=me.controlname.column(#)
in ControlSource of another control such as a textbox
... to specify that the first column with the ID number isn't what shows in the combo, in the ColumnWidths, set the first column width to be 0 (zero);
... if you want to display a SAVED value in a table, you can use a domain aggregate function in the ControlSource of a combo ( =dSum(...), = DFirst(...), etc )
Hi Strive4Peace
Sorry about my delay to reply, it is the time zone diference.
As I am not skilled in MS Access, I might have not explained myself sufficiently clear.
Below I am adding an example.
On table SOURCES I enter the “Data 1a”.
On table CROSS-REFERENCE I have a look up combo box field where I select Data 1 to combine with new data.
On table SCENARIO BUILDER I have another look up combo box field where I select “Data 1a” again but now the one that have been combined with extra data on the table CROSS-REFERENCE.
Happens that when I use the look up combo box on the table to select the “name text” it only show me the “id number”. It happens on both tables, the CROSS-REFERENCE and SCENARIO BUILDER.
My question was what parameter canuse on the “look up combo box” that I configured on a table, that when I select the data that will be stored, it shows the “name text” .
cheers
Isac
