A last question: I use Access 2007. When I open the Combobox wizard only shows two alternatives. The last alternative "Find a record on my form based on the value I selected in my Combobow" is not there. Does that has to do with the 2007 version? How do I find this alternative?
Reply from Richard Rost:
Yes... this is actually something I'm addresses RIGHT NOW in my new Access Search Seminar. In order for that 3rd option to show up, your form has to be based on a TABLE or QUERY - not an SQL statement, which is what the new Access "Quick Form Builder" uses. Open up your form's properties and change the SQL statement in the Control Source to an actual TABLE name. Then remake your combo box.
