    Look up

    I think its better to base your form on a query rather than the table, you would then stand a chance of linking the two tables together to display the data you want.

    Dlookup syntax for text criteria

    Dlookup syntax for text criteria

    Sound like the value being stored from the lookup (bound column) in table design is putting the pricelistcode in when the column is called product. That is probably by design so you may not get away with changing it. The knock on could be bad for other parts of the database.

    Dlookup syntax for text criteria

    A Dlookup on a Dlookup will work. Can you put the first of the Dlookups (the one you didn't know about) into the reports query as Expr1 and then run your second Dlookup in a control on the report using the criteria = '" & [Reports]![Mask_order_book]![Expr1] & "'"

    Simple database

When you have created a query you can then create a form that is based upon one of your queries, this will display the result in a...

The rest is the code that saves and handles any errors. It is basically looking for a field on the...
