selecting from table in form creating new entries as opposed to using existing

[drudini11]

I have setup a simple access database consisting of 3 tables
Volunteer
Id (PK)
Name



Job
Id (PK)
JobName

Link
Id (PK)
VolunteerId (FK)
JobId (FK)


There is a one to many relationship between Volunteer and Link and a many to one between Link and Job

I want to create a form from which I’ll select a Volunteer Name and then choose a JobName from a list box of options and have it create an entry in link with the id of the volunteer selected and the id of the job selected

So let’s say there are 5 entries currently in the Job Table………..let’s call the JobNames A,B,C,D and E.

In my form I select my name from the list (sourced from volunteer.Name) and then select B from the dropdown. My desired result would be a single entry gets created in Link with VolunteerId = 1 (representing me) and JobId = 2 representing the selection of B. Problem that I am having is that after I select B in the dropdown it creates a new record for B in Job and the Link table gets updated with that JobId as opposed to simply using the one that was already in the table. Have tried multiple ways of getting this to work and feel the table structure is OK so not quite sure what I am missing………hopefully someone can point me in the right direction. I am familiar with table relationships but more from the standpoint of querying data as opposed to forms and inserting records so this one has me stumped (and I’ll probably kick myself if the solution is simple and I’m just missing the boat).

Any help would be appreciated.

Suspect issue with form RecordSource and controls are bound to wrong fields.
