Clear combo box

[Cindygo]

I’m sure this is easy but I can’t figure it out. I have looked at the Northwind Employee Details form for clues but nothing I try works.

I created a combo box on a form. When I select a client’s name in the combo box the form populates with the client data. That is what I want.

The issue is that the combo box retains the client’s name I selected rather than clearing out. I simply want to view the list, select a name and have the name NOT display in the box itself. How do I do that?

How can I make the combo box display nothing after I select the name?

Thanks for your help,
cindy

In the AfterUpdate event of the ComboBox put:
Me.YourComboBoxName = Null
...using YourComboBoxName of course.

Thanks RuralGuy. That is simple enough.
