Path Syntax

A

Alex Anderson

Hello Everyone

Could someone tell me what would be the syntax to a combo box located in
the following format. frmmain, tab, subfrm, combo box. In my SQL
statement, I need to locate that combo box but I don't know the syntax. I
have tried to use the following but no luck. Like
[forms]![sfrmSettings].[form]![combo26]

Also, what is this path called within Access so I can read up on it?

Thank you
Alex Anderson

Forms!frmmain!subfrm!combobox

This assumes that subfrm is the name of the subform control (the control
that holds the subform) on the main form.

Ken,

The below syntax you gave me did not work. However, I was messing
around with expression builder and got the correct syntax. The following is
what I'm using.
Like [Forms]![frmMain]![frmSettings].[Form]![Combo26]

Thank you
Alex Anderson

Either version will work.
