Wanting to run before I can walk, I've been copying various items from the Northwind database, then modifying them for my own use.

I've run into a problem trying to understand what has been done in the following instance.

On the Northwind main switchboard, you can choose the option "Print Reports". This leads to the "Sales Reports Dialog Form". On this form under "Sales by Catergory" there is the option to select a category from the list. This is the feature I would like to duplicate. When I look into the properties of this bound box,under Row Source it seems to lead to a SQL Statement:Query Builder. This query looks like a normal query. Could I just use a normal query similar to the one Northwinds uses, or must I figure out how to do the SQL query?

Thanks for any help

Yes, if you have already built the query you need, you can use it as the row source for the combo.

thanks for the quick answer
