Hi everyone,
I feel like this is a stupid question but, I feel like I've read some conflicting viewpoints and need some clarification. A DB I have uses 2 forms. Both forms are requiring a new field called ExternalReferralSouce. I want to use a combo box for this but have started reading about the evil lookup field within a table. Since chances are good that this list will require expansion, is the best method to store these values in their own table and use the combo box to lookup those values in that table to insert into the table called tblIssues and the ExternalReferralSouce field? Is it wise to always avoid typing in the values you want right within the combo box wizard?
I'm not sure why I am having issues grasping this. Thank you in advance for any assistance!
thanks!
