    Unhappy field won't show

    Hi everyone.

    I've decided to create a form which will let me input certain information into the table which I have already created so as to lessen the likely hood of me having a typo, compromising the database. Well to do this, I chose to create a combobox which would list the six different possibilites for a specific field. Unfortunatly after creating the list, I went to assign the combobox to the field which I wish to have this information dumped. The field I wanted was not listed anywhere. Please help.

    Best,

    Suggest you upload a copy of your db. Dummy up any confidential material. Run a compact and repair before uploading to minimize size. If still to big, then zip before uploading. Additionally, because many users on this forum are not yet on 2010, suggest you convert to 2003 or earlier for this part of the excercise.

    Never mind. I'm sorry I had my stupid moment of the day. I forgot that I can just set the control source to the field I want, instead of having to rely on the combobox wizard. Thanks for offering the help though Alan.

    Best,
