I have a table with names of people and the cars they own. I made a form with a combobox which everytime i choose the name of the person in my combobox, it will list the cars they owned. That works fine. Problem i have is that i have to show how many cars they own. So i made a query to count the number of cars for each person. Then I made a textbox on the form to show this count. However I can't seem to link this textbox to the query since my form has a record source to the table of ppl and cars. How do i link my textbox to my query of counts of cars?

I tried changing the control source pointing to the field of the query but it doesn't work. I have linked the combobox selection so that my query filters to wat i select on the form. Anyone can help :( , its a simple process but i keep trying and doesn't work, and also dont wanna use a subform.
 
OK i solved the problem using Dlookup() after searching through the forum. Thx all who helped.
