When I choose data from a combo and the data is displayed in the relevent field, all the other fields in the same column change to the same value. The combo is not bound.

It's because the combo is not bound that this happens. With a continuous form, each instance of a bound control takes the value from the underlying record. With an unbound control, each instance takes the same value (unless it's result is calculated from the values in other controls).

Perhaps there's another way of achieving your desired outcome - what were you hoping to do?

Hello Simon,

All I need to do is have a combo on a form that looks at a table and displays all the values in a combo for me to select. When I select a value, an after update event will occur and fill a textbox with another value that the first relates to. The proceedure is working except for the combobox values is displaying the same value everytime?

Thanks. TAC
