Hello,

-What im working with:
MS Access 2003
Basic tracking MDB for tracking expired products

-Over view of my MDB
I have a tracking database with 2 tables and a form. The first table will be user entered information about expired products. The second table is a list of every item in our system keyed to a specific 5 digit number that is unique to every product.

On my form the first field a user will fill in is its 5digit product code. Once this is entered i would like the next few fields to automatically fill in by matching the entered product number to the 2nd table and then pulling the description/mfg#/price

example:
Product : 12345 <-user enters
Desc: "random product" <-matches product to table, finds corresponding desc and places in the text box.
MFG#: ALS124B <-matches product# to table, finds corresponding mfg and places it in text box
QTY: 3 <- user entered

Any help on how to do this would be appreciated I searched the web quite a bit and just cant figure this out.
