I posted this this morning but didn't get a responce???
I'm trying to create:
1. choices can be typed by the user 2. hit submit, or run or go 3. box below fills with those choises only I've tried unsuccessfully to create on the form a text box (for the hand typed entries) and list box (I hoped would display choices), but I have no idea how to get them to work together.Perhaps some suggestions or syntax? |

Try using the "Query By Form" feature. Create a Form based on your table, and select Query by Form from the menu. John W.

I'm using Office 2000 (& XP) - When I'm in form view or
design view,I don't see "Query By Form" How can I activate it or in what drop down can I find it in? Do I need 2003? -----Original Message----- On Mon, 26 Apr 2004 13:31:55 -0700, "Shaundra" wrote: I'm trying to create: 1. choices can be typed by the user 2. hit submit, or run or go 3. box below fills with those choises only I've tried unsuccessfully to create on the form a text box (for the hand typed entries) and list box (I hoped would display choices), but I have no idea how to get them to work together.Perhaps some suggestions or syntax?

I *think* John may have been referring to the Filter by Form button on the
toolbar when you are in Form or Datasheet view of your form.
