Sql sequence for drop lists.

Post by janeitesarah »

I've been trying to put a drop down list into a form, and I'm having trouble with writing the SQL command. I'm following the directions on the Getting Started Guide, but it's not working. This is a database for a property management office, and I'm trying to link the lease violation values with the appropriate field in the form.

Could someone walk through this with me?

Thanks!

Have you tried creating the query and extracting the SQL statement from that?

No, I have not. I followed the instructions in the Base guide to create the table, and then while creating the form to write the statement. When I wrote the statement following the instructions in the guide, it did not work.

If 2.4, it has a known bug with listboxes: http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/ ... =13&t=4463

Thank you! I just put the "C" in where suggested in that thread, and it works now.
