    Updating MS Access with User Input

    One quick question, for my combo box the row source is: SELECT Min(MSLINK),IDSTD FROM STNDAREA GROUP BY IDSTD; Is there any way I can order them further? Perhaps sort by Ascending or Decending so when the user drops down the list the values are not only grouped but sorted as well. thanks

    Updating MS Access with User Input

    Thanks for the help...It seems to be working but the one last thing I would like would be to group the values in the combo box drop down list so that they dont repeat...For example I dont want L1, L1, L1, L1, but rather grouping them together...Saying that, when I right click the combo box and...

    Updating MS Access with User Input

    Hi, I'm new to Access, databases, and this forum. I have a table called STNLINE with 2 fields, IDSTD and WINGSPAN_FT. I want the user to be able to update the field WINGSPAN_FT with whatever value they wish based on the value in the field IDSTD...Whats the easiest way I can do this?
