Refresh / Inquire Problems with Combobox
After noon,
I am having problems updating my ComboBox while the form is open.
My data changes when the form is open, so the ComboBox needs to be updated as such, but I can't figure out how to do this. Seems to be the only way to close and then reopen the form, but I'm not real
The original source of the ComboBox is a Simple Select request. I've tried using requery, but it doesn't do anything.
Sub ComboBox_GotFocus()
Me.ComboBox.Requery
End Sub
Any ideas?
Cheers, Michael

Clear and repopulate the combo box.
The easiest way:
sSQL_Select = "SELECT * FROM SOMETABLE"
Me.lstListBox.RowSource = ""
Me.lstListBox.RowSource = sSQL_Select
Instead of using SQL Query, you can also explicitly add values to the list.
In this, you can do something like:
Dim iList_Cnt As Integer
Dim iCnt As Integer
iList_Cnt = Me![lstListBox].ListCount
For iCnt = 0 To iList_Cnt - 1
Me![lstListBox].RemoveItem 0
Next
After that, the list is updated:
lstListbox.AddItem("Smtg_Col1;Smtg_Col2;Smtg_Col3")
Scroll through the dropdown list to add multiple lines.
