Cascading List Boxes

[BethB]

I have followed the instructions in
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/assistance/HA011177131033.aspx
I cannot ceem to get them to work.
I am connecting to an access database. I have created a secondary
datasource. I have a project table with projectname as the key. I have a
secondary table named projecttask with projectname and taskname. They are
linked by the projectname table. The second table has no key.
I have set up my first list box to populate from the project table using
projectname. I have set up my second list box to populate from the
projecttask table with taskname with a filter. The filter is: Projectname
(projecttask table) is equal to Projectname (project table)
The second list box returns every record in projecttask.

Any help is greatly appreciated...Beth

Maybe one of these articles or sample forms will be helpful:

I figured it out - I was not choosing the Main form for the compare - I
somehow choose to not follow that particular line of the instructions.
It works fine now

Thanks....Beth
