Fill Listbox Using Select Statement - Business Name or Contact Name if Business Name is Blank or Null
Apr 7 2011 2:46 PM
I have a database that holds basic contact information such as business name, contact name, address and phone information. The following code is used to fill the listbox. The issue I need to resolve is this... I am using the BusinessName field to display and set the order of the listbox. The directory holds business and people contact information. For a person record the ContactName field will be filled out and the business name would be empty/null. I want the listbox to show BusinessName if it is Not Null however if the BusinessName is Null I would like the ContactName to show in the listbox.
I think I need some logic that uses the BusinessName if not null otherwise use ContactName.
Any help would be appreciated.
