Getting "relationships" using VB code

[Geoff Gunson]

Hi

I have an access database with 2 tables.

Table 1 contains a field that gets all its possible values from table 2. So within access if i click on that field a combo box appears with all the options that i can select.

What I want to know is if it is possible to retrive this relationship when I open the database within VB code.

I have tried : CDRrs.Fields(FieldIndex).SourceTable

where CDRs is the open recordset but all it returns is the name of the table that the field is in. I would like to know the name of the table with all the values in.

Your is greatly appreciated.

Cheers
Geoff

Sounds to me like you need to fire another query...

So on the combo1_click event, you might want to do a query with a similar SQL statement to : -

"SELECT values FROM table2 WHERE linkID = " & combo1

And then populate whatever it is you are populating using the resulting recordset.
