We are not suggesting you add another field to the table.
You have a table
Bridges that has details of each bridge.
You also have a field in that table to identify the CountyNumber for the county in which that bridge is located.
You also have a lookup table that has CountyNumber and CountyName.
If you use the query as the recordsource of the form, then you can get all of the fields in the form since they are all available in the recordsource.
If you use the Bridges table as recordsource, then you do not have the CountyName available.
To solve this, try
adding a blank textbox on the form (wherever you need it)
make its ControlSource
Code:
=DLookup("CountyName","County_Lookup_Table","CountID = '" & Me.County & "'")
Is County a numeric value in the Bridge table? What datatpye is CountID in the Lookup table?
