    Combo Box/Lookup

    Hello all,

    Is it absolutely necessary when working with combo box/lookup that the table that will be the source be populated in advance?

    Can a combo box be dynamically updated (via a form) and then have the item available in the list?

    I hope this makes sense and thanks in advance.

    The Row Source of a Combo Box can be a query that runs when you enter the Control. Does that answer your question?

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
