    Move to Record

    Hi



    Is it possible to put a control on a record, like a drop down box, where you can select a record and Access will navidate to that record.

    Many thanks

    Yes. Usually done with a combo box in the Header Section of the form.
    Assuming that the form is bound to a table/query you can use the wizard to create it. It will create a macro to find the record selected. There's even a wizard that will convert the macro into VBA
    If this helped, please click the star at the bottom left of this posting and add to my reputation . Many thanks.
