Bound form -- Move to record with matched criteria

[kfcSmitty]

I have a somewhat bound form (ID, Name, Anniversary, etc are bound), but lots of other stuff isnt. Now, what I need to do, is when the user changes the ID combobox (populated with all the ID's from a table), it will move to the record with the proper ID.


If the form wasnt bound this would be simple, however, since it is, I cant find any way to accomplish this.


Would the only way be to use DoCmd,,AcNext/Previous until it hits the correct record?

No just requery the recordsource in the afterupdate event on the combobox..

Me.RecordSource = "SELECT * FROM tblTable WHERE condition"

much obliged..Thats 2 reps I owe ya

Don't worry about it... it's not always about reps.. besides I get a lot anyway (albiet most of them are grey.. )

[kfcSmitty]

I just realised..this doesnt move to the selected record, it requeries so its the only record being displayed..thats no good

[dannymking]

Yeah it will reduce it down to just the record that is created..

The command you need is

you will need to work out the position of the record

DoCmd.GoToRecord , ,acGoTo=12

Either that or you will need to program up a return button to cancel the filter..
