all,
again i would very much appreciate anyones help with this,,, i have a very simple one table database with a form that represents the data in the table, the form has a very simple search feature attached, i would like to add another text box or combo box to my form, this is easy enough,, i have entered new columns to the table to represent the new boxes,, however,, the new added boxes do not show the same data that is 'found' when i have used the search function,,, basically the added boxes do not do the same function as those that were added when i created the form using the form wizard,,, please please help
 
Is the form based on a query or directly on the table? If a query, have you added the new columns to it?

Hello Chris,, the form is bbased directly on the table
many thanks
 
Odd, new controls should reflect the data the same as the originals. Can you copy your db remove the records and attach it here? Use the Go Advanced button to attach a file.

ahh,, i think i may have sused it,, this probably isnt the best way to do things,, i copied one of the existing combo boxes and renamed the Control Source and copied nad renamed the column in the table,, is this a duff way of doing things??
once again,, thank you for your help
