how do i get listbox selected data into table
I have a form with an unbound listbox (0) set to simple for multi select,
that I populate it from a table that contains boardmembers. the query has 2 fields the boardmemberid and a concatenated field of Boardmember:bmlastname & " " & bmfirstname. The listbox column count is set to 2 and they are 0",1.5". The form also has an unbound textbox (name dBdate) set to date() and a combo box (named cboBoard) that when clicked on has 3 options: board 1, board 2, Joint. I would like to get the date, selected data from conbobox and selected data from the list box to append to a table called tblBmeetings which has the following fields. bmeetingid(auto pk) bmid (number(fK to bmid in tblboardmembers)) Board BoardMember Bdate I would like to do this with a cmd button. Thanks |

If the field BoardMember in tblBMeetings is the calculated Boardmember field from your combo box's rowsource query, I wouldn't have that field in the table because it is redundant; the BMID field identifies the board member, and the board member's name can always be derived by lookup and calculation from the BoardMembers table. However, I'll go ahead with this as you originally requested it. Here's possible code for your command button, which I'm calling "cmdAddMeeting". I'm assuming that the list box is named "lstBoardMembers". Warning: this is totally air code: '------ start of suggested code ------ Private Sub cmdAddMeeting_Click() Dim db As DAO.Database Dim varItem As Variant ' Verify required information. If Me.lstBoardMembers.ItemsSelected.Count = 0 Then MsgBox "You have to choose at least one board member!" Me.lstBoardMembers.SetFocus Exit Sub End If If IsNull(Me.dBdate) Then MsgBox "You have to enter a date!" Me.dBdate.SetFocus Exit Sub End If If IsNull(Me.cboBoard) Then MsgBox "You have to choose a board" Me.cboBoard.SetFocus Exit Sub End If ' We have what we need, so add the meeting(s).

I was not even at the point to do the validation, was trying to get it to work-so thank you very much for that. The validation works fine but when I hit the submit button I get the following error; SynTax Error (missing operator) in query expression " Tom Slone". Tom is the board member name. Would it have an effect if in lstBoardmembers I am populating it in this way. In the query I am using the tblBoardmembers. In stead of dropping down bmlastname and bmfirstname as the fields. I have this as the row source: SELECT [bmlastname] & " " & [bmfirstname] AS BoardMember FROM BoardMembers; The bound column is 1 and column count is 1 with width set to 1.5 Again it populates fine. Thanks for your assistance |

I then realized that after I sent the second post and changed it back. Your code works PERFECTLY. Thanks so much again for adding the validation code-saved me a few steps. Try2Learn |
