Is it possible to have a control like this in a form in Access2007? Instead of a listbox or a combobox.

(I am referring to the RIGHT image "Properties menu", NOT the calendar control)

I found it in this page
BUT unfortunately I can't open the sample database in Acc2007 to check how it can be done...

BTW What is the name of this control: Cascading menus or something?
 
Hi MajP.
I have tamed the beast yesterday!
Got it work as I intended in my db.
I use it as a temporary bar.

One thing if you make a cb permanent then it is impossible to delete. I run the delete command and then check if it exists. I get false. Then I go to the form and close the form. Then check if it exists and somehow it exists.

I encounter the same behavior.


I will test your new demo to see how it goes.

Me too I have many concerns about bloating, runtime distribution etc.

 
From what I have read, you definitely want this as temporary if you plan to rebuild then. The demo will show some safeguards to keep the run time from happening and make adding and deleting cleaner.
