Make Multiple Cascading Combo Boxes in Access

In this Microsoft Access tutorial, I will show you how to create and manage multiple cascading combo boxes, allowing you to link up to five levels of data hierarchy such as country, state, county, city, and street. We will explore advanced techniques using queries, SQL, and VBA to build these cascading combos effectively. Starting from setting up necessary tables for our dataset, I'll guide you through each step to ensure your data is efficiently managed and organized. This developer-level tutorial builds upon previous lessons and provides a foundational approach tailored for more complex cascading requirements.
