I understand the logic but I cannot get to grips with the programming. Could
you send me the code using the following template so I can figure it out.
Combo box 1 allows the user to select 10 machines.machine1 -> machine 10.
Once the user has selected the machine in combo box 1 they will go to combox
box 2 which will now have a list of machine parts in the list. ie. If they
select machine1 in combo box 1 then combo box 2 will have the following
choices eg. machine1_part1 -> machine2_part2 -> machine3_partZ. If they have
selected machineX in the first combox box then the "code" will list all the
parts from machinex table.
All of the different machines are in one table on their own
All the parts of machine1 are in a different table on their own
All the parts of machineX are in a different table on their own.
I know this sounds dum but it would be very nice if you could send me an
example of the code
Thanks Marshall
