List boxI am trying to use the list box function from the control
toolbar. I am not sure how to get the listings I want in
the list box. Is there certain VB coding that is needed?
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.
Todd
No VBA code needed. In Design mode, click on your list box and select
Properties from the Control toolbox (or right-click your list box and select
Properties), then scroll down to the ListFillRange Property and indicate the
cell range address that has the items you want to appear in the box (i.e.,
A1:A10). Then exit out of design mode and test your list box.

Security in FormsI have a database into which several people will be able to enter data
through a form. What I wish to do is block database members from seeing
entries by other database members. Database members do have an id and
password to enter the database, but how do I limit their ability to their own
entries? I only wish to use the one form - one of the controls does identify
the member.
Does anyone have some ideas?

Concatenate Multi-Select List Box ItemsI need to use the chosen items in a multi-select List Box as concatenated
text in another control on a subform. This text will be part of a large
amount of concatenated text. How do I do this? I did find info here about
using such items in a query but it was way over my head and I couldn't figure
out how to convert that idea to this issue so please don't just refer me to
that w/o some other explanation for this novice.
For example, if the user selects: Frt Bumper, Grille, & Headlamp in the

Filtering a combo box using a combo boxAll,
I am trying to filter the records from a table displayed in a combo
box using a combo box on the same form. I built a query and set the
criteria as Me![FormName]![Combo_box]. This allowed me to filter the
list, but it did not do exactly what I wanted. When the first combo
box is blank, the second one is also blank. Is there anyway I can get
the second combo box to display all of the records when the first box
is blank?
Thank you for your help.
Regards,
John
Try a criteria in the second combo of:
Like Forms!YourFormName!Combo1Name & "*"

Adding tabs to a formHi all!
What happens if I add a lot of new tabs to a form, say the Incident form?
Will there be a kind of slide bar or something when I deploy the
customization, in order to reach the tabs at the most right? Is there a
limit in the number of tabs we can add to a form?
Thanks in advance!
Mathieu.
Mathieu,
There is a limit of 8 tabs. During my testing, I did not see a scroll
bar for the tabs appear. Looks like you need some brevity with tab
names... HTH,
Dave

Field Type ChangeI am trying to change a free text field to a drop down menu in my
current database, that already has data entered for this particular
field, in order to avoid multiple versions of the same organization
that are just typed in differently.
I'm assuming that I'll need to recode the different versions of an
entry to make them uniform but after that, I'm unsure how to proceed
so I won't lose any data. Is this possible or will I need to delete
the field, recreate it as a drop down and then re-enter the data?
Thanks in advance!

Combo Box on FormsHi,
I am using a combo box on a form that has several items w/ one being

Add/remove whatever columns you want. Right-click on the header row and
select Field Chooser.
i may have not explained myself too well
i dont want to sort by the "to" column
i want the header on the email to show "to" not "from"

Combo BoxesSomeone sent me an Excel document where each of the cells in I1:I312 are
combo boxes. When you click off of those cells, the down arrow
disappears. The list for the combo boxes are cells AA1 and AB1 (AA1 is
New and AB1 is Existing). Please explain how this was done? Also, can
you please tell me if it is possible to make New and Existing autocorrect
entries. So even though the choices are New and Existing, if you hit N,
New appears, and if you hit E, Existing appears. Thanks!!
It sounds like Data|Validation.

Multiple Combo Boxes HighlightedHi,
I have a problem with something in VB6.
I have 4 combo boxes with individual names (not an array) located on an
SSTab object.
When I select another tab and then return to the tab these boxes are located
on, each of them appears to be highlighted in blue.
I add values to them only when loading the form so I'm at a loss as to why
this happens ?
Any ideas are greatly appreciated.

HELP !! Combo box to feed other combo boxesHi,
I have a form with a stock list. One field is [Dealer Allocated] so stock
can be allocated to a specific dealer - this is a combo box (combo1) for
single allocations.
I now also want to be able to update this combo box for several records in
bulk. I thought I would do this by having a second combo box in the footer
of the form which the user selects the dealer from and then clicks a button
which looks for first record without dealer allocated and updates the value
of combo1 to the value of combo2. This would then be enclosed in a Do Loop
for specified number of records.

begin with a lower-case letter (due to the context in which they are used),
but this may be changed in the cross-reference by right-clicking on the

However, when trying to capture this sequence in a macro recording, the

the code as such so that when a discrepancy is found and the user
clicks ok on the message box, focus is returned to (text24) and set to
blank so that the faulty number is gone. Here is the code I am
