    Updating a combo from another combo

    Hope someone can help

    I have 3 tables;- Landlords Details, Resident Details and Case File

    I created a form based on Case File.

    I then made a combo block that looks up Landlord details the shows me the 'Block Number'

    I then made a Combo box that i want the first combo (block number) to only list all residents that are in that block so that i can then select the resident I want, i



    in the first combo after up date i have

    Private Sub Combo95_AfterUpdate()
    Me.Combo107.Requery
    End Sub


    107 refers to the second combo

    in the second combo box i went to Data row source

    Landlord Details - Block number
    then
    Leaseholder Details - Resident Number - in Criteria [Forms]![Case]![Combo95]

    but that doesnt seem to work what am i doing wrong?
