I have 2 questions regarding displaying data on my form.
1. I have a combo box that allows the user to enter items not on the list.
Some of the items entered are longer than I have space to display on the form
(they typed in an item with 50 characters but I only have room on the form to
display the first 25.). The user is requesting some way to see the whole
line. Is there some way to allow the user to hover over the control and have
it display the whole line.
2. My form has a button that displays a popup form allows the user to
assign a customer to that line of data. I am using a form because it has to
return to the user a msgbox if certain criteria exists to ensure they want to
use this customer. Since the customer is being stored by customerid in my
detail table, I am returning the information into a combo box with the id
field hidded. The users now want the arrow of the combo box to be removed.
since the data is bound to the form, how can I have the functionality of the
columns of a combo box without using a combo box?
