I created a table with a combo-box lookup rather than
having the lookup on the form(bad design I now know). The
lookup was to a table with an Autonumber field and a
MaterialName field. My combo box row source is: SELECT
[tblMaterials].[MaterialID], [tblMaterials].[MaterialName]
FROM tblMaterials; with Bound Column being 1. I am now
trying to import/append data from Excel and can't because
(I'm guessing) the spreadsheet contains the MaterialName
and it's expecting the Autonumber for the Name. Please
tell me there's a way to remove this combobox and
import/append data that contains the MaterialName. I have
already built forms/queries, etc off this setup. Will I
have to redo them all?
