How can I get the value from an unbound column in a combo box

  • 0

How can I get the value from an unbound column in a combo box into a VBA variable?

I’ve got a combo box called cmbEmps that has a Row Source that looks like this

ID   Name    Active
1    Bob     -1
2    Jim     -1
3    Jane    0

It’s bound to a field on my form on column 1, and my column Widths have been set to 0″;1″;0″ so that only the name is displayed.

What I’d really like to do, is when Jane is selected, find out out that the Active column (3) is 0.

How can I do this?

    Refer to the third column in your combo box. Column numbering is zero-based.

    YourVariable = Me.cmbEmps.Column(2)
