    Combo box woes...

    Hey, not sure if this is in the right place, but I need a little help with a form I am working on.



    I am trying to make it so that when something is selected from a combo box that is linked to a field in the main table, all of the other fields are updated with the record selected in the first combo box's info.

    I am not sure what all you guys need to help me with this issue, however just say the word and I shall provide.


    Thanks!

    An *unbound* ComboBox will do that if you select #3 from the ComboBox wizard.

    Pardon my ignorance, but what do you mean by *unbound*?

    I am a noobie when it comes to access...

    Unbound means NO ControlSource. Use the ComboBox wizard and select #3 and see if that is what you were looking for.
