filter a form

[Ivor Williams]

I have a form frmTransfers with a record source tblTransfers. On the form is
a combo box cboCustomer. When the form is opened, I would like it to only
show records where the value in cboCustomer is not blank. How can I do this?

Hi Ivor,

Change the RowSource of the combo box to a query that returns records that
are not Null.

I hope this helps! If you have additional questions on this topic, please

If you want to limit the *form* to only records where there is a customer,
you could change its RecordSource property to something like this:
SELECT tblTransfers.*
FROM tblTransfers
WHERE CustomerID Is Not Null;
