I have a form that uses a dlookup to populate a text box from a combo box. It worked but recently it has stopped. I am working on the entire database so I created a copy to work on. Not only has the dlookup stopped working in my copy but in the original as well. I didn't change anything that...

I appreciate all your help. At this point I'm ready to go in a different direction. I'll let you know if I need anymore help. Thanks to all who tried to help.

It is definitely in the Before Update.

The values are exactly what I entered. Employee ID is ssn, Training Number is 5 and date is 3/1/2013

I'm sorry. No offense but you just spoke Greek (or is that Geek) haha. I'm not a programmer in any sense of the word. My expertise is in hardware. So I guess I'll need more instruction.
