Display inactive data on form but only active data in dropdown

Asked by BobRosas in Access Forms

Tags: VBA, Microsoft Access

I have a form that displays the support staff for a client.  If the support staff leaves I would still like the name to show when the client is pulled up.  But I don't want it to show in the dropdown menu when a user wants to assign a support staff.  
On the record source for the form I link the tblClient (has Support Staff Id #) with the tblLkUpSupportStaff (links via ID# but has the actual name) and display the name on the form.  For the dropdown menu I just use the lookup table and tell it to only include if active.  It works if the client is Active but when I make them inactive it no longer displays the name.  I guess the filter on the dropdown affects the form.  Is there a way to fix this?  If so how?  Thanks!Start Free Trial
