    More on using Excel from Access????

    Ooo You know, that is a great idea. The only difficulty is that my boss wants me to automate something that is already in use, so I can't make this file autorun a macro because they use it every day and the macro updates the data. Good thinking though. PB

    Should be an easy question to answer

    hmmm Thanks. I also had to change Combo42_OnChange to Combo42_BeforeUpdate. This seems counter intuitive to me. Anyone know why OnChange isn't the correct choice? PB
