Subject: Visual Basic ADO & DataCombo

Question
Hi,

I have 5 DataCombo Controls linked to an ADO at design time, each DataCombo is linked to a different field but all in the same table.

If the user select some data from one of the DataCombos, How can I get the remainder of the DataCombos to reflect their corresponding fields of the same record that the first DataCombo was selected to?


Thanking You,


Dexter deSouza  

Answer
Hi Dexter,
In order to achieve that you will have to modify the
.ListIndex and the .ItemData properties of your combo boxes. If you find that the Data Combo does not give the required flexibilty, you may decide to switch over to the standard combo-boxes. Here you are able to manipulate the contents of an combo as-and-how you please. So if the match is found, from the list of the combo boxes, you just have to display the appropriate value.
