Hi there folks,

First off just let me say I am a 100% complete newbie with access so if at all possible very detailed directions would be really helpful if you can. :P

Thanks in advance,

Anyway here goes, I am creating a database to record incoming and outgoing mail for a company i work for, it is more of a personal project as I am the one handling the mail.

On one of my forms I have a drop down combo filled with various section codes that the mail needs to be distributed to, associated with these sections are a list of initals whom the mail must go to...

For example:
Section = AH1001.3 Stakeholders = AA, AB, AC, AD

I have a table with a complete list of the sections and stakeholders. On the form I want to be able to use the drop down list of section to autofill another field with the associated stakeholders.

Can somebody help?

Agaion thanks and forgive my newbieness hahahaha

i don't mean to sound rude, but there are a million google articles on this issue... ;)

As well as Microsoft's take on it.

Maybe another idea here too.
