    Trouble with LookUp

    Hi there, hopefully somebody could help me here


    (Access 2007, Win XP)

    Briefly, I have three tables as part of an overall database; Organisation-tbl -> Office-tbl -> Agent-tbl

    An organisation can have many offices, and thus many employees/agent, pretty straightforward. I have info on the various organisations and their offices already entered.

    I am designing the agent Table and would like to be able to do the following

    When adding an agent, Select there organisation, easy enough to do - Look up from Organisation-tbl.ID - so far so good

    After the organisation is picked, I would like to be able to select from the relevant offices for that organisation.

    How do organise the table/queries to do so

    If any one can point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated

    Cheers

    Noel

    That is just cascading ComboBoxes. A Google search will turn up lots of references.
