Filter Combo Box Upload Images   Link

Here's another one...
I have a table with almost 600 dogs in total.  I have a Status field and each dog has a status, eg. Breeding, Puppy, Sold, Retired, etc.
The dogs I deal with on a day to day basis are mostly the Breeding dogs.
I have quite a few forms where I have to pick a dog by its name from a combo box.
The problem I have is, even if I type the name in, I sometimes end up with a few with the same name.
Can I filter the combo box to only show me dogs with a specific status, like Breeding?

Sure you could use an after update event on your status field to change the row source of your dog name combo box. Add a where clause to it that filters it by the value in the status box.
