[AccessD] Cascading menus sort of

Tina,

I just saw this now. I don't know if  you've solved the issue, but there are
excellent free, video tutorials on cascading combos here.

Subject: [AccessD] Cascading menus sort of

Hi,

Working on a database application where the client wants what she refers 
to as primary and secondary drop-downs.  The description is of a 
drop-list wherein two of the items have secondary drop-lists.  This is 
to be able to select specific reports to print.  So, one report, called 
"Post It" would have a second selection criterion of which counselor the 
report is for.

To me, this sounds like a cascading menu - commonly found in the 
Microsoft Office Suite programs - but I don't know how to construct that 
in Access.  Perhaps the Treeview approach is a good option.  I'd love a 
little feedback on how to meet this client's need.

Thanks,
Tina
