Re: [MS_AccessPros] Combo Box finds first record in table instead of selection

 

Doyce,

Use breakpoints, debug.print, and MsgBox() to troubleshoot your code. It helps to know the value of strComboVar. You have "eyes on the ground" while we can only guess.

Regards,

Duane

Subject: [MS_AccessPros] Combo Box finds first record in table instead of selection

 

Hello Friends,

I have a combo box that is supposed to find the record for the trailer typed into the box. However if you type in the unit number, it displays the first record in the table. Here is the code in the afterupdate event of the combo box:

Private Sub cboLookupTrailer_AfterUpdate()
    ' Find the record that matches the control.
    Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
    Dim strComboVar As String

    strComboVar = Me.cboLookupTrailer

    If Len(cboLookupTrailer & vbNullString) <> 0 Then
        Me.Filter = ""
        Me.FilterOn = False
        Me.Recordset.FindFirst "[New Unit #]='" & strComboVar & "'"
       
    End If
End Sub

I fear corruption. I have tried compact and repair and also deleting the combo box and recreating it. No luck. Anyone have any ideas?

Doyce
