Clearing filter on popup dialog form and reset to new value

do you have an afterupdate event on that combo Box?

after setting the value of the combo to myarg, call the afterupdate event of the combo box

or call the Click event of the button that sets the filter.

The under lining query for the popup has a criteria using Like filter on the recordset, verses setting the filter property

The combo box filter will change. I preferring to reset the filter property.  But I get a request of parameter when I do this.

I believe if I get the correct syntax to reset after cbo update the filter on the forms property verses a like criteria on the SQL . This should work.

   me.filter = Itemgroup &"=" & me.cbofiltergroup

but syntax is on the filter = Itemgroup = 'PatientNarrative'

How would you write the event to set this value back to the form filter property?

Thanks

clear the Filter property of the form in design view, save form
try just to requery the form

private sub form_load()
me.cboFilterGroup=myArg
me.requery

end sub

if that still fails try this

private sub form_load()
me.filter=""
me.cboFilterGroup=myArg
me.requery

end sub

Can the form filters be cleared and set dynamically in view mode?  

I will try what you suggest.  

But when I load the form I need to set a default value from the control name on the source event. Either to the form filter property or the the combo box filtering by SQL criteria.

I tried setting the myArg to the combo after clearing the filter in design view.  Still not setting the value (myArg) to the combo box.

It is a double click on the yellor Patient Narrative field to open the popup.

Not sure if I understand the if then logic.  But it works.
Thanks a million.

I tested the code and the openarg on other controls and found the filter is not released other than the first field use Patient Narrative.  I check the code for changes you make to the openform filter and openarg settings.  

See short video showing the difference.  No narrative.

you have two popup forms, "PopupTagMultiSelectitemswithFilter" and "PopupTagMultiSelectitems"

the changes in this uploaded db is NOW done only for  "PopupTagMultiSelectitems"

I see one new line I did not see in the previous version.  
Private Sub Form_Load()
If Me.OpenArgs & "" <> "" Then
    Me.cboFilterGroup = Me.OpenArgs
    Me.Requery
End If
Me.getFilter = myArg

End Sub

Its working great now.

Thanks

this line
Me.getFilter = myArg

is already there, don't know where you use it for.
