Hi,
I've inherited an Access database and need to create a form which will
allow me to view and alter the data. I've created a new form and using
a tip I got from this helpful site http://www.jmhare.com/wildhare2.htm
, I've created two combo boxes, with the contents of the second combo
box depending upon the value in the first. That's working fine though
it took a while to get it working properly because I don't think the
database is too correct or efficient (lookups everywhere). I want to
create a subform on that form where one of the fields in the records
is the same value as the second combo box.
Here's the SQL I have so far:
QryCountryCodes ByClub
---------------------
SELECT Countries.[CTRY CODE]
FROM Countries INNER JOIN Clubs ON Countries.[CTRY ID] =
Clubs.[CLUBS-COUNTRY_Code]
ORDER BY Countries.[CTRY CODE];
QryCountryCodes ByClub (combo box 1)
-----------------------------------
SELECT DISTINCT QryCountryCodes ByClub.[CTRY CODE]
FROM QryCountryCodes ByClub
ORDER BY QryCountryCodes ByClub.[CTRY CODE];
QryClubShortnam esFromCombo1 (combo box 2)
----------------------------------------
SELECT Clubs.CLUBS_Sho rtname
FROM Countries INNER JOIN Clubs ON Countries.[CTRY ID] =
Clubs.[CLUBS-COUNTRY_Code]
WHERE (((Countries.[CTRY CODE])=[forms]![frmMain]![COMBO1]))
ORDER BY Clubs.CLUBS_Sho rtname;
The relevant tables are called Personnel, Clubs and Countries. The
Personnel table is basically football players' details, including a
field called PLAYERS-CLUBS_Shortname which is a lookup to the field in
Clubs called CLUBS_Shortname . The Countries table has a three letter
code (CTRY CODE) and the Clubs table has a field (CLUBS-COUNTRY_CODE)
which is a lookup to the CTRY ID identifier in the Countries table. I
want the subform to only show those records where
Personnel.PLAYE RS-CLUBS_Shortname = the value in the second combo box
which itself depends upon the value in the first combo box. I hope
there's enough information there. I'd be grateful for any help at all,
been trying to get this to work for a day now.
Cheers
Mark
