creating a cascading menu

[Guest]

Hi!

I desparately need help creating a cascading menu on a form that is viewed
immediately upon opening Access. To illustrate what I mean, if you click on
"File" at the top of your screen and move your cursor to "New", another menu
automatically drops down. This is exactly what I need to create on an Access
form.

I wish to be able to click on "Data Capture", which will produce a list
including "Questionnaires" and "Covers", which when highlighted produce in
turn other menus with "Household", "Parent", etc. Upon selecting an option, I
would like Access to open the relevant form for data capture.

Is this possible? ...And if so, could someone please walk me through the
steps in "non-techno" language?

Your help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Hi,
you could try to set up cascading comboboxes.
You can find two great samples of this method here

While you are editing your menu, right click on the item you want to becomce
a sub menu and select Begin A Group.
