analytical accounting lookups should only show valid codes
When entering AA transaction distributions, the code lookup window should only show valid code combinations. It's not intuitive for the user to have to select a code and get an error message to discover which codes are valid. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

Show a blank result in a cell when there is no value in the "Lookup" cell
I apologize if this question has been asked, but I have been unable to find an answer searching the topics. I'm using the following formula in cell C3: =INDEX(LastName,MATCH(A3,EmpID,0)) When I type in an employee ID in A3, his/her last name shows in C3. However, when there is no value in A3, C3 shows error "#N/A". Is there a way to show a blank cell in C3 until a value is entered into A3? Thanks in advance!

Form w/ combo box from query based on lookup field not alphabetizi
I have a query that includes a lookup field (combo box). I included an ORDER BY clause in the query for the lookup field. The field sorts the lookup list alphabetically and in the query. I'm happy with that. I created a main form w/ a linked form based on the query. The linked form contains the lookup field. However, the lookup table is still not alphabetised. Why? Please help in alphabetising the field on the linked form. All help is prematurely appreciated. -- Thanks, Karen Table sorting is VERY strange - I think Bill Gates understands it and no one else without a MVP...

Set lookup in JavaScript possible?
Hi, I wonder if it is possible to set a lookup using javascript. According the sdk, I should set the id, the name and the typename which I do. However, nothing is displayed. Is it possible or is only possible from server side?

Access 2007 not showing field names in query wizard/lookup wizard/etc
Hi, This happened to me while at a customer site and caused a few problems. It is no longer occurring, but I wonder if anyone has suggestions. The issue was that on new databases or existing ones, i could not create new queries or use the lookup wizard when creating tables because the list of fields in existing tables or queries would not show up. Today i go into the exact same db's and it works fine. It's not a huge issue because i could just do all the queries by hand and whatnot, but it slowed me down considerably and i just want to try to avoid it in the future (plus i just th...

Lookup value off by one row
Hi, Any help you can provide on this would be appreciated. I have a worksheet that identifies how far a number is from target. I created the lookup below to coorespond to the productivity increase for next year. =LOOKUP(C4,LookUpValues!$A$1:$A$402,LookUpValues!$B$1:$B$402) C4 is -10.9, in the lookupValues tab -10.9 is in row 93 column A as is the desired result return of 5.6 in column b, however the lookup function is returning 5.7.

Display in Lookups
Does anyone remember in the Dynamics Table Import how to set the field "Display in Lookups" in the GL00100 so that all series are highlighted? It was something like filling in the field as a constant with all fffffffffff's. I tried serveral different letters but upon importing the "Display in Lookups" had nothing highlighted. I also tried using SQL Query Analyzer to set the field to "OxFFFFFFFF" like the rest of the accounts. Unfortunately the field is not a string. You set the field to 65536 . -- Richard L.

Custom field with lookup table
Hi, I'm trying to use a custom field with a lookup table. The problem is that I can't save my lookup table. Always getting an unknown error. My lookup table is built like this X.Y.Z where X is "1 to 6", Y is "A to Z" and Z is "A to Z + 1 to 199". Total of 35262 lines. So I wnat to know if there's a limit to the lookup table size ?

V Lookup and Multiple Values
Hello, I am looking to figure out how to use V Lookup with multiple values. I have about 30 of the same name in column A (This is picked out of about 30.000 names in column A). How can I do this? Thanks. You can use a helper column with a COUNTIF formula to turn those 30 multiple values into 30 unique values, by tagging a sequential number onto the value. Then you can use an INDEX/MATCH combination to bring the matching data across, either singly or for all values. I could give you more details on how to do this if you could supply more details of what data you have, how it...
