setting a combo box value from another form

[jason_nevin]

I have a form with a query based bound combo. The same combo can be found on another form which can be launched from the original form. I want to update the combo on the original form with the same value as the combo on the launched form (after update).

In my after update event I have the following code;

[Foms]![form1]![Combo1] = Combo 2

This doesn't seem to work (I don't get an error but Combo1 doesn't update).

Any ideas?

Check data type of your Row and Control sources in comboboxes. Combobox show one data but proces another data. I mean if Control source is some_ID and Row source is "someName" based on query or value list, combobox display "someName" but carrying value is some_ID.

hope this help.
