Hello everybody!
I have a little problem here.
I am trying to make a form with one drop down list (Name for example) and a few other fields (phone,email,etc), all which I want to import from one table.
My actual problem which I do not know how to do is the fact that when I change the Object from the list (Name) I want the other fields to adjust themselves to the info (phone,email,etc) of the new one, how do I do this?
I know this might sound really strange or not make too much sense, but help would be appreciated.
Thank you :)
 
You could include the other details (phone etc) as hidden columns in your combo box and then use a reference to these columns as the Control Source property of a text box for each column.
If however, the other details are in a table on the may side of a one - many relationship you may want to use a subform or perhaps a list box to display them.
EDIT
Also search the forum and google for Cascading Combo boxes
