RE: [MS_AccessPros] Synchronized Combo Boxes on a Subform

 

Brad-

First, I don't understand the purpose of the tblProjectJunction table. You have
EmployeeID in tblProjects, so it would appear that you have a simple one to many
relationship between employees and projects. (An employee can have multiple
projects, but a project is assigned to only one employee.)

To solve your problem, you need to do:

1) Change the Row Source of Combo22 on the subform to:
SELECT tblProduct.ProductID, tblProduct.Product FROM tblProduct WHERE
[CustomerID] = [Forms]![frmDataEntry]![frmDataEntryTest
subform].Form![CustomerID] ORDER BY [Product];

2) Add code to the Current event of the subform:

Private Sub Form_Current()
Me.Combo22.Requery
End Sub

3) Add code to the AfterUpdate event of the CustomerID combo box:

Private Sub dboCustomer_AfterUpdate()
Me.Combo22.Requery
End Sub

I suspect what has been tripping you up is the convoluted reference to the
CustomerID on the subform that you need to filter the product list. Here's a
breakdown:

[Forms] -- the collection of open forms. Note that the subform is NOT in this
collection!
[frmDataEntry] -- the parent form that is open.
[frmDataEntryTest subform] -- the name of the subform control on the parent
form. Note that in your case, the name of the control does NOT match the name
of the subform inside.
[Form] -- the form object inside the subform control.
[CustomerID] -- the name of the control on the subform that contains the filter
value.

You need a requery of the filtered combo box to make sure the Row Source is up
to date when you move to a different record that might have a different customer
ID. You also need to requery the combo box when the user picks a different
customer ID.

Subject: [MS_AccessPros] Synchronized Combo Boxes on a Subform

Hello, I am creating a time tracking database and am having trouble
synchronizing two combo boxes on a subform. I have tried several suggestions I
found on the Web, but with no luck. To make things easy to understand, I placed
an over-simplified version of my DB (with just the problem form and subform) in
the PTS Time Tool folder and named it TimeTool_new. The only combo boxes that
need to synchronize are the Customer and Product. Previously, the problem was
caused by flawed tables and relationships. I followed the suggestions from an
earlier post and revised them. I don't think that is causing the problem now,
but please let me know if they are not correct. My experience level is beginner
and I use access 2007. I appreciate any help you can give me.

Thanks,

Brad
