Pierre is my saviour again ;). However if I autonumber the Group ID field, then each name is given a different number in this field, so it becomes one-to-one, which won't work. If the problem is selecting the name, then I guess I will just have to have the Investor ID selected instead.

Cheers for your help, it's on the Data Entry/Groups form, adding new records to the Investors form.

Is it possible to do so? If so, what is the syntax?

I will try to word this as best I can to explain my problem. I have a many-to-many-to-many database setup, where the important tables are the Companies and the Investors, with tables called Investments and Groups to act as go-betweens to enable the many-to-many relationship. So I have a form...
