My text boxes won't work! Help!!
I have four unbound text boxes on my switchboard that I am using for search
criteria for macros that I've made. However, when I view my switchboard in form view, it won't allow me to type any text in the boxes. I tried using a combo box to use as a search box, but in form view it won't allow me to select anything from the combo box! Is this because it's a switchboard form instead of a regular form maybe?? I can't figure this out and have been scouring the internet for an hour now |

By unbound, you mean that the Control Source property is blank for all of
the textboxes, right? Is the form's Allow Edits property set to Yes? It needs to be if you're going to type into those textboxes. -- Ken Snell MS ACCESS MVP http://www.accessmvp.com/KDSnell/ "Mstodd" wrote in message news I have four unbound text boxes on my switchboard that I am using for search criteria for macros that I've made.

A switchboard form is basically for use as a menu with clickable buttons.
