    How to pull value from a combo box to a text field using an expression

    I have a form where the combo box list the server name and number which pulls from the tblservers (not sure this is relevant)

    ID | ServerName
    1 | s1
    2 | s2
    3 | s3
    etc...
    The combobox shows s1, s2, s3, etc.

    However,


    I have written an expression to create a link in a text field to the correct server page. the only problem is, it is pulling the ID number and not the server name.

    =IIf([JobServerID_FK]<>"","http://" & [JobServerID_FK] & ":" & [TPNumber] & "/mobiledoc/ScriptServlet","No Server")

    http://5:9064/mobiledoc/ScriptServlet

    I need to see s1, s2, or s3 where the 5 is showing

    SORRY HIT THE POST BUTTON PREMATURELY...
    Do I need to add the server name to my query that the form is pulling from?
