Combo Box Population
I am trying to populate a dropdown combo box with a recordset. Generally, you populate the combo box with only one field of information though. How can I automatically populate the combo box with more than one field (Below is what I'd like the box to look like when dropped down)?
Bob Smith 1235 Dept. 1
John Doe 2345 Dept. 2
Jane Doe 3556 Dept. 5
Combo Box Population From Array And Loop
What is happening is that 5 combobox items are being populated with nothing instead of the the string information that I am trying to get into the combo box from the array with a loop.
Code:
'fill index from array to combobox.
names = Array(apple, frog, prince, duckling, swan)
For i = 0 To 4
newitem = names(i)
'string then index for combo item
'combo1.addItem(names(i))
Combo1.AddItem (newitem)
'Combo1.AddItem ("new")
Next i
List Type Combo Box Population
I've got a function that populates a form from database records. On this form are several dropdown list comboboxes so the user can't type anything into them at data entry. When I fill this form, if there's no data in one of the combo box fields, I get an error that the text property is read only. I'm basically setting the combo box text to "" if there's no data. What's a work around for this error - I'm tempted to use resume next but don't really want to do that.
Automatic Population Of Combo And Text Boxes
Hi
I have created an input form(inpform) in access using VBA and I need to automatically populate other boxes on the form (from a separate table) when the contents of one box is entered.
The documendet table contains the following fields:-
Filename
System
Menu
Docname
Docdesc
When the filename is selected from the filename combo box on the input form (inpform) this should automatically populate the system combo box with the system used, the Menu combo box with menu the document is on, the document name text box with name of the document and the document description text box with details of what the letter is for. All this information is held in the documendet table.
E.g
When filename "BIRTHDAY" is selected from the filename combo box on the input form this should automatically populate the system combo box with "WORD", the Menu combo box with "LETTERS", the document name text box with "HAPPY BIRTHDAY LETTER" and the document description text box with "A LETTER TO WISH THE CUSTOMER HAPPY BIRTHDAY".
Being new to VBA I'm not even sure where to start with this so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Jules

Combo Box Auto Search
I got a combo box and it is linked to a table full of employee's details. what i need it to do is when i scroll the list and find the employee and click on it, display the information about him within the form.
Newbie question, but i am a newbie tbh
Any help is most welcome
Combo Box Auto Drop
Hi everybody,
I am a newbie at this so please be patient. I have a combo box that gets populated with names of customers from the CUSTOMER table from an access database. What I want the user to be able to do is that when they type a last name in that combo box, the combo box automatically drops open and start scrolling to the matching last name. So far I have a List box performing this action and its working like a charm. But my client wants a combo box to save some space in stead of a list box.
I have tried posting this question in Microsoft Knowledge Newsgroups and received an answer. The person gave me a link to a website that allowed me to download a VB project that does exactly what I need to do. But the code in that project is extremely complex. Being a Newbie that I am, I have no idea how to decipher it. Can anyone give me a better solution to my problem? I'd much appreciate it.
Thanks
Combo Box Auto Fill
I'm surprised i couldnt find the answer to this in the forum. Maybe i'm searching wrong..
But I'd like to know what I need to do to get a combo box to automatically fill in as you press keys.. such as
If i have a combo box with AM and PM in it, if i press A, I want it to go to AM if I press P, it brings in PM for me..
Is there a property to set I'm overlooking? i know it's got to be a really simple thing, but I can't seem to find it.
Thanks.

Combo Box Auto Display
Example: in the combo box I have listed the following:
1: BOOK
2: TV
3: CAR
Now , when I type (1) in the combo text box , and press enter , I want the list to automatically search for that id and display it.
I don't want to use any kind of loop because I think the combo box can do it automatically! Try this , type number 1 in the combo text box and click on the list arraw and it will go directly to the item which starts with number 1.

Dim sFindString As String
On Error GoTo Err_Handler
If KeyAscii = 8 Then
If cboCurrent.SelStart <= 1 Then

Exit Function
End If
If cboCurrent.SelLength = 0 Then

Auto Complete Combo Box
Hi,
At present this is what's happening. In VB6, i have a Databound combobox link to a SQL2000
database using Data Environment Object. When i clicked on the dataCombobox
and start typing in a character it should automatically complete theword
based on the data found in the DataCombo (same function for AutoExpandin access). For instance, i have 5 data "Jon,
Tom, Time, Mary, Jane" in the data. If i type "to" in the datacombo it
should automatically find the closest match (which it Tom, in this case)and
display it in the dataCombo.
Does anyone know there is a way to do it?
Thanks in advance.

Combo Box Auto Select
Hi
I don't know if this is possible but here it goes. I have a combo box that I populate with a stored procedure. Here is the code. I would like to be able to auto select(as the user types in the box it finds the name ) but if I do so I can't get the list index of the item. I have to really click the selection to get the corresponding List Index. How would I get this to work?
Set rsPopulateRequestor = New ADODB.Recordset
rsPopulateRequestor.Open "spRequestorPopulate", Cn, adOpenForwardOnly
Do Until rsPopulateRequestor.EOF
cboRequestor.AddItem rsPopulateRequestor!LastName & ", " & rsPopulateRequestor!FirstName
cboRequestor.ItemData(cboRequestor.NewIndex) = rsPopulateRequestor!RequestorID
rsPopulateRequestor.MoveNext
Loop

Help With Combo Box And Auto Date In TextBox.
Hi,
Kind of new to VB. Learning as I go along here. Is there a way to have a textbox automatically enter in that day's date when opening that file?
Also I put some code in for a combo box in word. I used the control toolbox to place the combo box and then just added the items.
Private Sub Form_Load()
ComboBox2.AddItem "Yes"
ComboBox2.AddItem "No"
End Sub
That works fine when I run it but when I save and close the file and get back into it, the code is there but everything in the dropdown list is gone. Basically I want to create a template that others can use. Once they open up the file everything should up and running. Is there a way to design this and not use code? Am I just doing something wrong with the properties? Or is there another way to do it and keep the functionality saved. I remember with Outlook it had more of a properties menu feature that allowed me to do that without VB Code. I just started using Word for some VB and getting lost here.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Generating Auto Items For A Combo Box

Auto Complete Data Combo
Hello everyone.
I was wondering if anyone knows how I can get the Data Combo control to do type ahead. It kind of does it now, but instead of displaying what the user is typing and highlighting the matched entry it highlights the whole word. It also looses what the user types after a few seconds. This makes it hard to use. I need to use the data combo, because I am binding it to an ADO recordset. I figured out how to get this functionality to work on a regular combo using the API, but I can't bind the regular one to a recordset. I am open to buying a third party control if anyone knows of one that will serve my needs.
Thanks
Auto Display Text In Combo Box
OK, I would like to have a combo box containing all the states. When the user starts to type, it will pull up the closest state that matches the text he is typing in.
Example:
User hits "M" and the first state listed with "M" would be displayed "Maine". User Continues to type "MAS" and Massachusetts" would be displayed next. User Types "MASA" and nothing is displayed I think you get the idea, Right? LOL
So how can I do this? Is there an easy or standard way this is done?
Thanks for reading this.
Combo Box Auto Selection Of Item At Start
I have a combo box that is set to dropdown list(so read only) and a couple of records in it. Now the problem is that when i start the program there is no field selected in the combo box and i need to select a filed by hand, but i want the first field to be selected at start(or could be any other field)
How do i do this?
Thx
Auto-complete Feature In VB Combo Boxes
In access, when making forms, you can add combos boxes.
then if you type in the combo box, it automatically completes what you ar typing.
eg, if there is a value 'forest' in the combo box, as you type 'f' the word forest will appear. you can then enter or tab out of the combo box to accept that value. otherwise, you can keep typing over it.
anyone know how to replicate this in VB?
Populate Combo Box && Auto Complete For US States
Should you put the code in the program to populate a combo box or should you have it reference a table or do it another way?
For example lets say you have a combo box that is going to list the abbreviations for all the states in the U.S. Do you .AddItem for each 50 state abbreviation? Or should you just write them in a small table and have the program reference the table to fill the combo box?
I'm just curious as to which would be better so as not to slow my program. Or, if there is another option that would be helpful as well.
Auto Combo Box Creation In MS Word Tables
Hi,
I have a project on that requires automating the creation of combo boxes in the third column of
each and every row in all tables within an MS Word 2000 document.
While each combo box bookmark is to be uniquely named within the code (using something along the lines of Status"&xVal, the values of the combo list are the same 6 or 7 text stringsin the document.
Not being a VBA expert, any help here will be greatly welcomed.
Thanks kindly,

Combo Box (extended Matching) Auto Select Not Functioning. **RESOLVED**
OK going nuts here, I know this should work, did alot of digging around here and came up with all these solutions of how to get a combo box to auto complete or search text. IE
Entries in combo box:
Andrew
Billy
Bina
Bob
Byrn
Sam
the user pressed B and it selects Billy since its the first B, then the user presses o and it moves down to bob in the list etc..
Well from all the digging i do, these next two examples of code should work.
EXAMPLE1:
VB Code:
'DeclarationsPrivate Declare Function SendMessage Lib "user32" Alias "SendMessageA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal wMsg As Long, ByVal wParam As Long, lParam As Any) As LongConst CB_ERR = (-1)Const CB_FINDSTRING = &H14C Private Sub Combo1_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer) Dim CB As Long Dim FindString As String If KeyAscii < 32 Or KeyAscii > 127 Then Exit Sub If Combo1.SelLength = 0 Then FindString = Combo1.Text & Chr$(KeyAscii) Else FindString = Left$(Combo1.Text, Combo1.SelStart) & Chr$(KeyAscii) End If CB = SendMessage(Combo1.hWnd, CB_FINDSTRING, -1, ByVal FindString) If CB <> CB_ERR Then Combo1.ListIndex = CB Combo1.SelStart = Len(FindString) Combo1.SelLength = Len(Combo1.Text) - Combo1.SelStart End If KeyAscii = 0End Sub
EXAMPLE 2:
VB Code:
'In keypress of combobox KeyAscii = AUTOFIND(Me.Activecontrol, KeyAscii, True) ' The Decalarations Private Declare Function SendMessage Lib "user32" Alias _ "SendMessageA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal wMsg As Long, _ ByVal wParam As Long, lParam As Any) As Long Const CB_FINDSTRING = &H14CConst CB_ERR = (-1) ' The Function '*******************************************************************************' AUTOFIND (FUNCTION)'' DESCRIPTION:' AUTOCOMPLETE A COMBOBOX (WORKS !!!)'******************************************************************************* Public Function AUTOFIND(ByRef cboCurrent As ComboBox, _ ByVal KeyAscii As Integer, Optional ByVal LimitToList As Boolean = False) Dim lCB As Long Dim sFindString As String If KeyAscii = 8 Then If cboCurrent.SelStart <= 1 Then cboCurrent = "" AUTOFIND = 0 Exit Function End If If cboCurrent.SelLength = 0 Then sFindString = UCase(Left(cboCurrent, Len(cboCurrent) - 1)) Else sFindString = Left$(cboCurrent.Text, cboCurrent.SelStart - 1) End If ElseIf KeyAscii < 32 Or KeyAscii > 127 Then Exit Function Else If cboCurrent.SelLength = 0 Then sFindString = UCase(cboCurrent.Text & Chr$(KeyAscii)) Else sFindString = Left$(cboCurrent.Text, cboCurrent.SelStart) & Chr$(KeyAscii) End If End If lCB = SendMessage(cboCurrent.hwnd, CB_FINDSTRING, -1, ByVal sFindString) If lCB <> CB_ERR Then cboCurrent.ListIndex = lCB cboCurrent.SelStart = Len(sFindString) cboCurrent.SelLength = Len(cboCurrent.Text) - cboCurrent.SelStart AUTOFIND = 0 Else If LimitToList = True Then AUTOFIND = 0 Else AUTOFIND = KeyAscii End If End If End Function
END EXAMPLES
However. when i run this I get errors on the .SelLength. The exact error is.
Run time Error 380:
Invalid property value
Anyone have any idea why?
Do i need any references etc. setup?
VB's auto code recognition stuff sees that as an option, IE when i type combo1. the drop down list after the period shows SelLength as an option.
Pulling my hair out here, anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.
PS: yes i changed all the combo1's to the name of my combo box

Drop Down Box Population
I have a simple ado database form that has combo boxes populated from another database. I want to be able to select fields from the drop down box and save it to the database for the form not the drop down database. When I hit update then next without selecting from that populated drop down box, no errors occur and the database is updated properly. When I select from the populated drop down box, hit update then next, i get the following error: "Data error event hit err: Operation was canceled"
here is the code for the drop down box population:

Con.Open strCon
'sql statement to select items on the drop down list

Treeview Population
cant seem to make this work properly. I'm making this treeview that reads data from and SQL server. Sometimes it gives me half a list and sometimes nothing or just 1 item.
Code:
With rs2
Do Until .EOF
Set Node1 = TreeView1.Nodes.Add(, tvwFirst, "I" & .Fields("functionID"), .Fields("functionName"), 1)
With rs
Do Until .EOF
Set Node2 = TreeView1.Nodes.Add("I" & .Fields("functionID"), tvwChild, "K" & .Fields("typeID"), .Fields("typeName"), 2)
With rs3
Do Until .EOF
Set Node3 = TreeView1.Nodes.Add("K" & .Fields("typeID"), tvwChild, "H" & .Fields("valueID"), .Fields("valueName"), 3)
.MoveNext
Loop
'Node1.Expanded = True
End With
.MoveNext
Loop
End With
.MoveNext
Loop
End With
My table in the database looks like this:
functionID, functionName, typeID, typeName, valueID, valueName
____1________name1______1______type1_____1_____value1
____1________name2______2______type2_____2_____value2
____1________name3______3______type3_____3_____value3
____2________name2______2______type2_____3_____value3
As you can see all the ID's can have the same numbers, and i think thats where the problem lies. How can i solve this issue in my code? Adding a number per key?
NetUserEnum Population
im populating a listview with over 2800 users. but there is a problem, or rather an annoyance, it takes an hour using the method im currently using. i wondered how i could speed this up. im currently using the NetUserEnum API, and wondered if this in fact the best one to use for this task

Combobox Population
Hi - I'm pretty new to this stuff, but I'm having a blast. I need to populate my combobox #1 with a simple list from an Excel file, then based on the combobox #1 selected item combobox #2 populates with another Excel list. Am I kidding myself? I've seen great stuff in here but I'm just not "there" yet... VB 6.0 Professional
Thanks much!
HFlexGrid Population
I am trying to create a Hierarchical view of my data. I was wondering how to set the records to the child or the parent as the recordset roll thru. I am using a coded ADO recordset with no binding. All of the examples I have found are all databound related. I also understand the fundamentals of the FlexGrid control, just not how to set the parent/child part of a HFlexGrid Control. It looks like I use bands, but I have not found any examples to create them.
Listview Population
I have a listview control on one of my forms... I am trying to populate the listview so that I have a users username in one colum of my listview, and the users fullname in the next column on the same row. I then want to be able to select the entire row (username and lastname together) to proceed with the function... I have entered the following code to a listview with the view properties of list, fullrow select, and multiple columns:
VB Code:
frmFIND.lstvwResults.ListItems.Add , , rsMyRS!UserNamefrmFIND.lstvwResults.ListItems.Add , , rsMyRS!EMPLOYEE_NAME
This results in a display on the listview of 2 records showing:
mjosh
Mark Josh
sthrone
Sheila Throne
why is this happening like this? What do I need to do to fix this?
Elegant Cbo Population
So if we're agreed that data-bound controls are evil (and I do believe they are now), what is the most elegant/fastest/easiest way to populate a combobox w/ a list of items and their associated IDs?
To use a simple example,
"SELECT tblProject.ProjectName, tblProjectID FROM tblProject"
gives me the two things I need. ProjectName gives me the items I want to populate the cbo with so my users have something readable, and ProjectID gives me the key value to do my thing behind the scenes.
Populating the combox w/ ProjectName is obviously easy as I just loop through the recordset.
The crux of the matter is how do I keep track of the associated ID when they click on an item in the combobox?
Disconnected recordset? Array?
If this influences the answer at all, we're talking about ~100 records or so. And yes, they all need to be available to the user.

Combobox Population
After populating a combo box with font names - and sorting alphabetically. How tdo I get the bold, italic, underline buttons to respond to the first font in the list? e.g. the first alphabetical font on my system is a bold and I want the bold button to become pressed after populating etc for italic and underline if it applies to the font. This will differ for each system.
ADO & BDCombo Population
Hey there,
I just want to populate an ADO DBCombo box using the "Data Environment Designer". This allows me to make a connection to may access database and create a command querry.
Whenever I use this it only takes the 1st field from my database. I want it to add the whole column. Any ideas how I can make this add the entire Column to the DBCombo box? This is about 50 entries (the states for the U.S.) and I just wanted it in my DBCombo box.
Any help appreciated.
