Should I have one separate table for each combobox source?

mercredi 8 avril 2015

I suspect I have made a beginners mistake in my very first Access database, but before I start this again from scratch, I would like to know if it is really a mistake, or if I might easily fix it somehow.



I have a form with several combo boxes.

All the source fields for those comboboxes are in one table. But of course every field has a different number of cells containing content. Now when I open a combobox in a form, the sequence of the cells are a mess, and there are lots of empty lines for many of them. (probably also because I reordered some fields in the source table)

I now have no clue if I can crop the combobox dropdown output somehow so that each combox only shows cells with content. (and preferably in a defined order)



Should I have started with creating one different table for every combobox, and not trying to put all the source fields in one table?

Should I have one separate table for each combobox source?
