Hi!
I am really new to this, but have been thrown into Access programming at work. I have a database of hundreds of technical procedures which we want to be able to quickly access through a form which contains search/filter capabilities.
The procedures are in the "Procedures" table, listed by the "procedure number" (primary key), "functional area" (procedure catagory), and "related procedures" (discriptive title of document).
I have created a form which contains a combo box listing the "functional area" catagories for the user to choose from. Below it is a box which I want to display the "related procedures", filtered based on the choice made in the "functional area" combo box. When a choice is made from the "related procedures" box, I need to have the chosen procedure information to appear in the remaider of the form below.
I have tried to create event procedure "OnEnter" to make this occur, but that doesn't work. I will be the first to admit that I'm probably making a very elementary error, but I don't have anyone around me that knows Access97 any better! Any help will be greatly appreciated!!!
