Microsoft Access Association Database, Part 7: Combo Boxes for Helper Data

preview_player
Показать описание
This is Part 7 of my Microsoft Access Association Database. In this video we're going to build the combo boxes on our main forms to select helper data based on the specific type of data we need to pick for that combo box.

Silver members and up get access to an extended cut of this video. Members will learn how to double click on the combo box to open up the helper type form to the specific helper type ID, make any changes such as adding a new value, and then when they close that form it will update the combo box. Well then add a password and make the password sticky so it remembers that you're a manager for the rest of this Access session.

The concept of that Helper table is fantastic. before you came out with that TechHelp video I was using a ton of small tables as I'm not a fan of having the list in the combo boxes.

Hi Richard,
May I ask a quick question…?
I have a Form that I created to allow me to enter transaction details. There are currently 84 transactions associated with that table. When I get to the last transaction, I hit the arrow at the bottom to start a new transaction. I was expecting the primary key (I.D.) to automatically increment to 85. That’s not happening, is my expectation incorrect?
Thanks in advance!
Jim
