Limiting content of combo boxes from a previous combo box selectio

[Guest]

Hello,

My apologies, Excel is my thing, and not Access. I've been asked to set up a
report testbed to validate report titles, with data in four columns as
follows;
CLASS, CATEGORY, SUBCATEGORY, and TYPE. Once data has been selected in
CLASS, each column should update to reflect only those selections available
based upon the choice made in the previous combo box. Hope this makes sense.
(I did search the forum, but couldn't find an answer...)

Thanks in advance

No offense, but you couldn't have searched that hard, as this question comes
up all the time.

Right...but first I need to know what I'm looking for before I can find it.
And your listed solution has indeed been covered, but does not solve my
problem.

Thanks for trying.

You're not trying to do this in a table, using lookup fields, are you? You
should never work directly with tables (and you should never use lookup
fields in tables).
