can you please give m that example in the coding.

Me.Products.RowSource = "SELECT ProductName FROM" & _
   " Products WHERE VendorID = " & Me.Vendor & _
   " ORDER BY ProductName"
Me.Products = Me.Products.ItemData(0)Can you please let me know if this is 
correct

Also I have another database, for books that when I select the author, I want
the book to populate the list box only associated with the authors.

I hear that Infopath is alot easier on these things
Also in the form it's only dispaying 6 records not all 100
Even when I populate one list box to the subform I still have trouble


What is a cascading list box?

A cascading list box is a list box with choices that change based on the
value that a user selects in another list box. For example, if a user clicks 
Condiments
in the Categories box shown in the following illustration, the Products
box will display a list of condiments.



The following sections show you how to design a form template with two list
boxes, where the second list box is filtered based on the value a user selects
from the first list box. When the value in the first list box changes, the
filter is automatically applied to the second list box, which changes its
values.

Compatibility considerations

Filters can be used only in form templates that are designed to be filled
out in InfoPath. Filters are not available in browser-compatible
form templates (browser-compatible
form template: A form template that is designed in InfoPath by using a specific
compatibility mode. A browser-compatible form template can be browser-enabled
when it is published to a server running InfoPath Forms Services.).

Step 1: Insert a cascading list box

To create a cascading list box, you must insert two list boxes in your form
template.

 Note   When you insert a cascading list box in
your form template, ensure that the two list boxes are not in a repeating 
section (repeating
section: A control on a form that contains other controls and that repeats as
needed. Users can insert multiple sections when filling out the form.)
or repeating table (repeating
table: A control on a form that contains other controls in a table format and
that repeats as needed. Users can insert multiple rows when filling out the
form.).

If the Controls task
     pane is not visible, click More Controls on the Insert menu,
     or press ALT+I, C.Under Insert controls
     in the Controls task pane, click Drop-Down List Box. When a
     user fills out a form that is based on your form template, the selection
     in this drop-down list box will determine the choices that are available
     in the second list box.Click List Box. Your
     form template should now contain a drop-down list box and a standard list
     box.



Double-click the drop-down
     list box that you inserted in your form template in step 2.In the 
Drop-Down List Box
     Properties dialog box, click the Data tab.In the Field name box,
     type listBox1, and then click OK.Double-click the list box
     that you inserted in your form template in step 3. In the List Box 
Properties
     dialog box, click the Data tab.In the Field name box,
     type listBox2Cascade, and then click OK.

            I don't seem to understand why you have Me.Products= Me.Products. 
ItemData( 0) at the end of the SQL statement. Is this part of the criteria? 



In addition, if Categories is a text then you need to enclose it in single 
quotes like "WHERE VendorID = '" & Me.Categories & "'". Please note that after 
the equals sign there is a single quote (') and then double quotes (") and 
after Categories there is the ampersand (&), double quotes ("), single quote 
and then double quotes again.

You seem to be getting quite weird problems with your database. If the formula 
is in the control footer or the report footer and the control source is valid 
the formula should work i.e. If Num_Unit_Facility_ 01 is a valid control source 
(check the underlying table) and the formula is placed in the 
Num_Unit_Facility_ 01 footer you should get the correct answer unless there is 
something wrong with your Access.



Looking at your question again you say that you have created the formula in the 
Control Source of your Sum_Num_Unit_ Facility_ 01 field. This is not clear at 
least to me. You place the formula in the control's footer on the report and 
not in the Control Source. Perhaps I don't understand the question.

Subject: [ms_access] Sum formula not working in the Control Source



Hello everyone,



I'm pretty new to MS Access. I've created the following formula in the Control 
Source of my Sum_Num_Unit_ Facility_ 01 field:



=Sum([Num_Unit_ Facility_ 01])



I'm getting the #Error message. I cannot figure out why this would be 
happening. It seems like this would be the easiest formula in the world.



Can someone please help me?



Thank you in advance.



Dawn
