    Combobox in a row

    Hello everyone,



    I have a problem which I don't know if it's basic but i don't find any solution (I have to say that I'm a noob in this program)

    I have 3 tables

    The 1st one (Company) I have a list of companies.
    The 2nd one I have a list of parts and it have a column with lookup function (I made it using lookup wizard) which shows the list of companies from (Company table) to choose one company.
    The 3rd one table is where I have the problem. As it can be seen, when I want to choose one part from (Part table), The combobox shows the ID instead of the name of the company.

    How can I solve it?

    Thanks a lot!

    Bye!

    I never set lookups in tables: http://access.mvps.org/access/lookupfields.htm

    Also don't work directly with tables and queries. I build forms to interface with data.
