Update subforms rowsource based off of combobox

Asked by ClaudeWalker in Access Forms, Microsoft Access Database, Access Coding/Macros

Tags: , ,

Is there a way to change the rowsource of a subform?

I have an In/Out board subform whose rowsource is contingent upon a combobox in the parent form.

The records in the combo box are people and groups.

cboBox source:
Jim
Office
Field
Phil
James
Supervisor

The Many to many table associating these people to groups looks like:
Person  Group
Jim           Office
Jim           Field
Phil           Supervisor
James      Auditor
James      Office

The problem with the many to many table in the query for the rowsource of the subform is many results come up because the unique results are tainted by the many groups.

The only way I can think to get the correct results in the subform is to change the subforms rowsource depending on whether a group OR person is selected.

Example:  if James is selected one record (james) is shown.  If office selected Jim and James are shown.

Here is the code

Thanks, JOe K.
