in [General]

From: Pierkes on 20 May 2010 13:12 Hi, On a form i have - a combobox called "combo_house" based on a query called " Houses". In the query i have a column called "price" and a column called "transdate" which is a date. On the form i also have 2 toggle boxes; one called "sold" one called "not sold" I would like to be able to filter the query used by the combobox when the togglebox is checked. So when i check "sold" the query used by the combobox should be filtered on the value in column "price" > 0 OR column "transdate" > date() Can anyone help me on the vba code to do this please ? Thanks very much, Pierre
From: Jeff Boyce on 20 May 2010 13:42 Pierre Consider using an option group rather than a pair of toggle boxes. That way, only one of the conditions would be "true". Then, in the option group's AfterUpdate event, you could set/re-set the RowSource property of the combobox to the appropriate query (use two queries, one for each condition). I'm not familiar with the particulars of your business (you haven't described them), but it seems to me that the sales date might not be in the future (i.e., > Date() -- "greater than today's date").

From: Pierkes on 25 May 2010 09:09 Hi, Now i used 2 queries and it works perfectly ! Thanks for helping me ! However, i feel it should be possible to just change the filter on a query that is used by the combobox instead of using two queries ?

From: Jeff Boyce on 25 May 2010 13:23 Perhaps one of the other newsgroup readers has done something like this. I don't have any experience using this approach.
