Combo boxes

to show & display more than one field from a query on a combo box i.e. client no & name.

RE: combo boxes

Hi Hanan,

Thank you for your post, the answer to your question is;

When you are creating your table before it comes to the query stage, create your chosen field using the Lookup Wizard option, when it comes to the choose fields dialog, choose the fields you wish to include, when you display your combo box the fields will display, if however you wish to be able to select different field values, this is not possible from a single combo box. Note: in your Column Count in the properties list ensure you are showing 2 (or more).

regards Pete
