I am trying to create a form called frmBudget but I am having a hard time getting the form to work and do what I want it to do.
These are the fields in frmBudget
ExpenseDate
ExpenseCategory
ExpenseItem
Projected Cost
Actual Cost
Comments
I want to create a combo box for the ExpenseCategory and ExpenseItem fields in frmBudget so I can enter the values that I want to appear in these combo boxes thru another table in datasheet view (let’s call the table TblHidden).
As a result I would like to be able to select a value from the combo box in the ExpenseCategory and ExpenseItem fields of frmBudget and have the selection go into the ExpenseCategory and ExpenseItem fields in TblExpenseCategory and TblExpenseItem, not the table where I am selecting the values from (TblHidden). Is this possible? If so can you tell me how?
Just in case it helps to understand my question, these are my tables and relationships
TblExpenseCategory
ExpenseCategoryID (linked to ExpenseCategoryID in TblExpenseItem)
ExpenseCategory
TblExpenseItem
ExpenseItemID
ExpenseCategoryID (linked to ExpenseID in TblExpense)
ExpenseItem
TblExpense
ExpenseID (linked to ExpenseID in TblExpenseDetail)
ExpenseDate
Comments
TblExpenseDetail
