Hey all,
I'm brand new to this forum and brand new to VC++, so go easy on me!
Here's what I'm trying to do:
I want to make an incredibly simply .exe program that will read data from a MS Access database which I've linked to an Excel document. I have 3 dropdown menu's and then a bunch of data-output text fields.
Basically, my question is this: For the 3 dropdown menus, each menu goes from a broad specific category to more and more specific items. So, once you make a selection in the first one, I need to have specific options for the second dropdown menus generated. Furthermore, once a selection is made in the 2nd dropdown menu, there will have to be options generated in the 3rd dropdown menu pulled from the database.
Once the final selection is made in the 3rd dropdown menu, I'd want to to read the database for that specific item and regurgitate all the values into text fields I've created which I can link to the database.
Here's what I've got so far: The first dropdown menu is simple, and I've added the options for that. I've made all the text fields where the data from the database will be regurgitated and can even link it, but can't figure out how to do it to a specific cell, and certainly haven't figured out how to get it to link the info automatically upon selection in the 3rd dropdown menu.
Anyways, as I said, go easy on me, and any help you can provide would be awesome.
Thanks,
