"Parent combo" default value does not give me proper rowsource in "child combo"

[Tom]

I use cascading combos which have rowsources driven by events. In some
instances, the rowsource of the "parent combo" may have only a single value.

In such case, I use the following line to automatically select this value as
the default value:

Me.cboDivision = Me.cboDivision.ItemData(0)

It shows up properly; however, when I now click on the "child combo" it does
not show the subordinate records. Only once I click on the parent combo --
and select the already pre-selected single value -- I then get the rowsource
in the child combo.

How can I make it that the single value in parent combo is selected and I
automatically get the proper rowsource in the child combo as well?

Thanks,
Tom

I'm guessing that you have code that runs on the AfterUpdate event of the
"parent" combo box in order to requery the second combo box. Just call the
AfterUpdate event's code when you set the value of the "parent" combo box.

Me.cboDivision = Me.cboDivision.ItemData(0)
Call cboDivision_AfterUpdate()
