Can a combo box be linked to a primary key?

Can a combo box be linked to a primary key?

Answer: Quite often the primary key value can mean nothing to the user. Instead, there is a description field in the table that relays the meaning of the record. In Access you can link a combo box to the primary key, but display the description in the combo box itself.

Why are the function keys on my keyboard not working?

Function keys not working. If the function keys are not working, the problem may be that you have a function lock or F-Lock key that needs to be toggled. The F-Lock key is used to turn on or off the F keys (F1 through F12) or secondary functions of the F keys. Tip. Some keyboards may label the F-Lock key as the Fn key.

Why does my keyboard not type certain letters?

It won’t type certain letters, nor does it use any other keys (delete, control, esc). I had thought the sticky keys were enabled so I turned them off.

What should I do if my key fob won’t work?

Some cars can still detect dead key fobs this way in emergencies. If it’s a cold day, go indoors and warm up the key fob with your breath. Sometimes, the temperature can mess with the electronics. If you have a second key fob, try using it. This should at least show you if the problem is the key or the car.
