Combo box

[Anita]

In my form I am displaying the state in a combo box.When I am saving the data in my recordset it is fine but,when I want to display it in the combobox from my reocrdset it is giving an error "Read only property".How do I display the value from the recorset in the combo box?Please reply.

What property of the combobox are you attempting to modify? It would help if you posted some of your code.

When I am displaying the record in the form from the recordset i have written
combo1.text = rs!state

Anita try,

combo1.clear
rs.movefirst
do
combo1.AddItem rs!State
rs.movenext
if rs.eof then exit do
loop
combo1.listindex = 0

hope it helps

Text property of the Combobox will be read-only if you set the Style property to 2 (Dropdown List). You can use AddItem method instead.


Combo1.AddItem "MyItem"
Combo1.Listindex = Combo1.NewIndex
