Dispalying Cbo Box Values

[Tamer]

Hi all,
I have an Access2K form that has several cbo boxes. I want
to do the following:
When selecting a value from the first cbo box, the list
generated in the following cbo box should be based on the
value selected from the first cbo box.

Is it possible to include an SQL parameter with a "WHERE"
clause to perform this in the event procedure? If yes, how
to do this? If no, what other way will allow to do it?

Yes - this is possible and very commonly done. Here are two articles that
explain how to do this:

Here's some sample code which may help.

Private Sub cboByState_AfterUpdate()
Dim Q$
If Not IsNull(cboByState) Then
Q = "SELECT SSN, Last, First, Addee, City, State, Zip FROM " _
& "MainData WHERE State Like """ & cboByState & """" _
& "ORDER BY Last, First;"
lblRMS.Caption = "Names For " & cboByState & ":"
lblRMS.Visible = True: cboRMS.Visible = True
cboRMS.RowSource = "": cboRMS.RowSource = Q
cboRMS.SetFocus: cboRMS.Dropdown
cmdPatStates.Enabled = True
Else
lblRMS.Visible = False: cboRMS.Visible = False
cmdPatStates.Enabled = False
End If
End Sub
