HELP Wanted (advanced form)

Cloud anyone please help me with the following ?
- May be you can give me some guidelines-

I want to use a (Multirecord) SelectionQueryresult as input for an
(Multirecord)-Input-Subform
It must be the result of an afterupdate action.

My problem now is that the subform is already configured (and also must be
configured as)
a multicombobox multirecords-input-subform.

So, I want to create a subform with both, comboboxes (per record) and a
selectionqueryresult as inputdevice.

Thanks in advance,

Jaap

Hi,


You cannot have a continuous form with a combo box in each record AND with
an individual list for each record. At most, you will get a common list for
all the records and that may screw up your (sub-)form logic. Instead, try to
put that kind of combo box in the footer of the (sub-)form. You will get
only one combo box that you can refresh in the onCurrentEvent (and elsewhere
as required), or, I recommand, in the GotFocus event of that combo box:
compute the required RowSOurce and compare that required row soruce with the
actual one; if they are both equal, do nothing, if they differ, assign with
the new rowsource property with the required one and then (and only then)
requery the control (the idea is to avoid requiring the combo box if the
user IS NOT interested in the list; the user is interested in the list ONLY
if the combo box get the focus)



Hope it may help,

I think you will have to create another pop-up form to enter data
and in the subform to display pure data (no comboboxes)
