Setting the default value's on an unbound log in form (Savng user inf

[alanna101207]

Just want to know if anybody knows a good thread, or idea that tackles this issue.

I have a simple Log-in form...ie... UserID and ProgramID. It is 2 combo boxes that the first one you enter the user name, then the 2nd combo drops down and displays the active programs for that user. Once selected, the ProgramForm opens with that matching criteria, and the Log In form closes.

What I am going to start working on is a typical check box that saves that user and program information when the form is closed. So the next time I open that log in form, the user and program info are already to go and you just need to click the command button to continue...

Right now my Log in form or it's combo boxes are not bound to a table.

Does anybody know of a good blog or thread, or even a simple idea that could point me in the right direction on this issue.

Thank you for any help.

Maybe I am missing something here, but why not just write the data to a table? Recheck the table when you open the form. If you need help on the specific code, provide some more details.

I agree with MajP. Another option is to write to the registry, but that is way no fun (and dangerous).

Always remember that you're unique. Just like everyone else.
