Post subject: How do I add a COLUMN to combo box Archived from groups: microsoft>public>access (more info?)

I have two combo boxes on a form. The first combo box gets info from
tblPOTODO using a select query and the following code.
SELECT tblPOTODO.PART_NO, tblPOTODO.NAME, tblPOTODO.MANUF1,
tblPOTODO.MANUF1_PN, tblPOTODO.MANUF2, tblPOTODO.MANUF2_PN, tblPOTODO.MANUF3,
tblPOTODO.MANUF3_PN FROM tblPOTODO;
The second combo box is populated when a selection is made of the first
combo box. The selections of the second combo box will be:
MANUF1
MANUF2
MANUF3
Once a selection is made on that second combo box, I would like to populate
a text box [MANUF_PN] with the corresponding MANUF_PN.
I'm using the following code to populate the second combo box from the
selection made on the first combo box.
*****************************************************
With Me.PART_NO
If IsNull(.Value) Then
Me.MANUF.RowSource = ""
Else
For I = 2 To 6 Step 2
strValue = .Column(I) & vbNullString
If Len(strValue) > 0 Then
strRowSource = strRowSource & ";" & Q & strValue & Q
End If
Next I
Me.MANUF.RowSource = Mid$(strRowSource, 2)
End If
End With
*****************************************************
My second combo box currently has these options.
MANUF1
MANUF2
MANUF3
How can I change the above code so that my combo box has two columns? Like...
MANUF1 | MANUF1_PN
MANUF2 | MANUF2_PN
MANUF3 | MANUF3_PN
If I can make this happen, then, would I be able to use the value of the
second column of the line selected as the "value" of my text box? I think
this would work.
Please help me make this happen. Thanks SO MUCH!!! >> Stay informed about: How do I add a COLUMN to combo box |

I do nkow that to add a cloumn to your combo box you can change it's
properties. In the property sheet in the format tab change to coulmn count to
the desire amount of fields you want to display. You also need to change the
column widths
wich work by inches. So you would change the column count to 2 and change
the column widths to 1";1" to give each column a one inch view.

If you normalized, like I would have sworn I told you to do about 3
months ago, then you wouldn't have this problem. You could just set
the rowsource for your next combobox and requery it and everything
would work fine. There's code for this at [URL="http://www.mvps.org/access"]www.mvps.org/access[/URL] in the
forms section. >> Stay informed about: How do I add a COLUMN to combo box |
