    Choosing values of a field with drop-down menu.

    Hi.
    New in access(and this forum).
    Let's say that I have made a table about clients with fields:"name" and "money".
    I want to have (in another "table") the possibility to choose through a drop-down menu from the values of e.g. "name" and then to the next cell make appear the respective value of "salary" or a mathematical expression of it(e.g. "salary"+500).
    I'm looking for a general guiding(e.g. the second "table" should be a table,a form, a query?)


    Thanks in advance.

    p.s.even a link in a tutorial answering to this?

    Have you looked at examples for listbox and combobox?

    One of them might work, unless your task is more complex than I see in your question.
    Just do a search on Access listbox and you'll get all the examples you need.

    If this solves your problem, please mark the post as solved by using the thread tools.
