I have a form with a list box with items in it. I want when I double click on a row a form opens and displays the corresponding record. The problem I have is automatically selecting the corresponding item in a combobox on the form being opened which would then display the rest of data.

Thanks for any help.
 
On the Open or Load Event of the New Form, you need to reference the combobox control on the original form

Example:

Me.[NewComboBox]=Forms![Original Form].Form.[Original Combobox]
 
If I add "where" won't this filter out the other items? You see, I want all the other items in the combolist to be there but I want to jump to this particular item in the list. Its like making it the default value only you don't what it is.
