    Link item ID and description

    Hello


    I am new to access and I am trying to build an inventory management in access.

    I have a table with all the inventory and has the following form:
    Item ID - Description - Quantity

    Item Id is used and in other tables (which are linked to basic inventory table), and I want to add and the column "description".

    But I would like when I am typing item Id to autoshow the description.

    Is it possible?

    Thanks
