Retreive data from text box and sort
I want to retreive data from the text box "Expirare" and sort that date
descending in the right list box. Seems simple but I don't know how to do that. Thanks. http://img407.imageshack.us/my.php?image=accessia1.jpg

Retreive data from text box and sort
Data isn't stored in a textbox in Access. Data is stored in tables.
If you want to list dates, use a query to retrieve (and sort) the dates from a field in a table. Regards Jeff Boyce Microsoft Office/Access MVP "Carl_and_Earl" wrote in message ...

Retreive data from text box and sort
Probably the easiest way is to use a query for the list box which reads from
the form, something like: SELECT tblMyData.DateField FROM tblMyData WHERE (((tblMyData.DateField)=[Forms]![tblMyData]![Expirare])); Then requery when or if you change the textbox. -- Arvin Meyer, MCP, MVP http://www.datastrat.com http://www.mvps.org/access http://www.accessmvp.com "Carl_and_Earl" wrote in message ...

Retreive data from text box and sort
At first, I wanted to do how you told me, but I also wanted the date to be
dd/mm/yyyy type and couldn't do that, so I changed to text. "Jeff Boyce" wrote: Data isn't stored in a textbox in Access. Data is stored in tables.

Retreive data from text box and sort
Access treats text differently than date/time values. If you want to see a
date/time value displayed as you describe, don't change it to text, just use the format property (or function). Regards Jeff Boyce Microsoft Office/Access MVP "Carl_and_Earl" wrote in message ...

I had already tried formating, but I didn't succeed. Maybe I didn't try enough.
