trim dropdown value before executing query
Access 2010 vba
I have a combobox where the row source is a query.
When a value/copied and pasted./ typed into the combo box.
The query brings back the result.
I want to trim the value pasted before the query executes ?
me.cbo_Names = trim(me.cbo_names)
Thanks
