I'm receiving an error message while trying to build a data access page:
In a Microsoft Access Database (.mdb), you can't group on a control bound to a field that has a Memo or OLE Object data type. In Microsoft Access project, you can't group on a control bound to a field that has an Image or Text data type.
I'm trying to use grouping to simplify the output of a search such that the user is not overwhelmed with details about a subject until clicking on the expand box. I’m don’t need the grouping function per se - I’m down in the level of individual records that do not need to be grouped.. In the high-level summary I'm providing to the user I would like to have a description field (Memo) and a few Text entries, except that when I try for that, I receive the above error.
Two questions emerge:
a) Can I perform the expand/hide action with a means other than using grouping?
b) Can I have fields in the grouping header that are not part of the grouping criteria?
Thanks for any help!
