thanks for the reply. i seem not be able to replicate your sample, i will quickly tell you what i did.
i created a I have a combo box called Combo38 that references a query called Order. Order has 2 columns, 1 for Title, second one is for Price. i have Combo38 displaying the Title from that query, and wish for a text box to display the second column, the price.
for the combo38, i have Row Source: Order
for the text box i have entered = combo38.column(2) and it just is empty, the combo works but nothing shows in the text box
thanks again in advance
