The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Different combobox row source property for each record on a continuous form.

Asked by thenelson in Access Forms, Access Coding/Macros, SQL Query Syntax

Tags: Microsoft, Access, 2003

I have a combobox on a continuous subform. I would like the dropdown list to be different on each record depending upon another field in the record. I have a query that accomplishes that (see below). However, when I requery the row source query, it is of course applied to the combobox for every record and the others turn blank since the value selected in the combobox of the other records are not in the row source query. For example, on on record, I want all the pharmacies in the contact table to be displayed in the drop down, on another record, I want all the attorneys displayed.

Any ideas on how to accomplish this?

Row Source query:
SELECT IIf([ContactTypeID]=18 Or [ContactTypeID]=19,[OurID],IIf(Len([LastName] & "")=0,[CompanyName],[LastName] & ", " & [FirstName] & (IIf([Suffix],", "," "))) & [Suffix]) AS Name, Contacts.ContactID, "," & (SELECT DISTINCT tblProviderDescription.AllowedContactTypes FROM tblProviderDescription WHERE (tblProviderDescription.ProviderDescriptionID)=[Forms].[frmProvidersSubform].[ProviderDescriptionID]) & "," AS Expr1
FROM Contacts
WHERE ((("," & (SELECT DISTINCT tblProviderDescription.AllowedContactTypes FROM tblProviderDescription WHERE (tblProviderDescription.ProviderDescriptionID)=[Forms].[frmProvidersSubform].[ProviderDescriptionID]) & ",") Like "*," & [Contacts].[ContactTypeID] & ",*"))
ORDER BY IIf([ContactTypeID]=18 Or [ContactTypeID]=19,[OurID],IIf(Len([LastName] & "")=0,[CompanyName],[LastName] & ", " & [FirstName] & (IIf([Suffix],", "," "))) & [Suffix]);
