in the same form

use the combo box wizard to 'Find a record on the form based on combo box selection'

i have done that.
but when i click on it nothing happens. i need to push a button the update the form

check what fields you are setting up as the main link to link the combo box to the form

e.g. put the PK field on the form, and set this as the 'bound' colum in the combo box
