Combo Box Access Not Showing Values

So the pick list correctly shows the right value but how do i get the combox to show the display name field message 3 of 12 5 664 views.

Combo box access not showing values. I have a database representing an inventory where objects are classified as normal or containers. Next close the query builder window by clicking on the x in the top right corner of the query builder window. If the combo box is on a bound field there may be an existing value that is not valid. Now when you view the values in the combo box you will see that only unique values appear.

Combo box in form does not show existing value. When the query properties window appears set the unique values property to yes. My combobox is based on a picklist. The items property should contain the source of data from which selections can be made.

Then click on the button with the 3 dots to the right of the row source property to bring up the query builder window. Turn off the fill in as you type feature for a combo box on a form in the auto expand property box click no. If you simply check for isnull access says it is not null. In access you can link a combo box to the primary key but display the description in the combo box itself.

Only containers can contain other objects and no object can be contained in more than one container. Right click on the combo box and select properties from the popup menu. If the combo box or list box is based on a fixed value list access uses the first n items of data from the value list row source property as the column headings where n the number set in the column count property. For example the value may have been in the list when it was originally selected but the current list of allowed values has changed.

You will be prompted to save the changes. The value for the items property doesn t seem right because it is called items unless you are using a collection and you called it items.
