I have a text field using a Combo Box lookup. The values been displayed are queried from a table listing the possible values. If the user types a value that is not listed is it possible to have that new value added to the table so it will be displayed in the combo box in the future?

Thanks.

No! . . . who can! . . . what I use is called a [blue]Library[/blue] (my own)! . . . Since your in the arena of programming it would be a [blue]prime idea[/blue] to [blue]start you own![/blue]

I just lookup the topic (or what I believe to substitute) parse thru the results and pass on to you what I consider to fit your needs . . . [blue]unless it comes to my mind directly![/blue]

There isn't a worthy programer alive who doesn't have there own library! . . . (All those things you can't remember or are important enough to be logged!).

. . . and to make it peachy . . . my library is an access DB! . . . designed by me . . . to fit how I search!

[blue]Your Thoughts? . . .[/blue]
