    How do I choose a record from a list and it populates a form?

    I have a form that displays client information (named "Clients Information").


    I have a drop down list on the firm that displays all the clients in my database. My question is how do I click on a client from the drop down list and have it fill in all the fields on the "Client Information" form. I want the list to be included on the Client Information form as well as all the fields.

    Please help a newb out!!!

    Thanks.

    Add another ComboBox to your form with the cbo wizard and select option 3.

    Thanks

    That was ridiculously simple. Thanks a lot. I have been trying to figure this out for about three days! I have thousands of questions about this program. I'm new to this, just trying to make a program for my wife's business.

    Thanks again! I'll probably have more posts I'm sure!
