Hi. I got your reply re: my message about copying data from a combo box to a text field. You supplied a line of code for me to enter in the AfterUpdate event. Can you tell me exactly how to enter that code? I cannot get it to work. Here's what I did. I went to the AfterUpdate line of the combobox, chose [Event Procedure] and typed

Me.Rate = Me.OrigDest.Column(2)

It doesn't work. Is there some trick to entering code. Please advise. Thanks.

I don't have near the expertise of Pat, but since she does not appear to be around at the moment I will try to answer your question.

With your form in Design view and the property sheet open for your Combo box you should have [Event Procedure] in the After Update event. If you click on that event you should see a button appear to the right with 3 dots on it. Clicking on that button will open the forms code page and the cursor should be flashing between two lines of code. Type your line of code right there. Close the code page and open your form and your code should work.
