text box on Access subform will not allow data entry? Fix?
I have a subform located under a tab on a form. It will not allow me to
enter any data into the textbox. It is a combo box linked to a table. I have set bound columns, column widths, and column count correctly. What am I overlooking? |

I suspect the query the SubForm is based on is not updateable. Does your
data entry attempts just beep? amarillort wrote: I have a subform located under a tab on a form. It will not allow me to enter any data into the textbox. It is a combo box linked to a table.

Hi -
What, if any, error messages do you get? Is the "limit to list" property of the combo box set to "Yes" (it should be "no") John amarillort wrote: I have a subform located under a tab on a form.

I do not get any error message. The "limit to List" is set to 'No" also. I
do not get any beeps either. The forms control source is a table. "J. Goddard" wrote: Hi - What, if any, error messages do you get?

Are you trying to enter new records into the same table the combo box is based on? Remember that although a combo box can display several fields from a table or query, it can only add to or update one field - the one it is bound to. Are the property settings on the subform correct, to allow you to add new records, or to edit existing data? John amarillort wrote: I do not get any error message.

Can you change any other control on that SubForm?
