In the AfterUpdate Event for the second combo box, set the values. I'm assuming you are trying to auto-populate other text boxes on the form. For example, something like:
Private Sub 2ndCombo_AfterUpdate () Dim Address_ID Address_ID = delivery address id, however you figure that out TxtBoxAddress1 = DLookup("Address1", "tbl_Addresses", "ID = " & Address_ID) TxtBoxAddress2 = DLookup("Address2", "tbl_Addresses", "ID = " & Address_ID) TxtBoxCity = DLookup("City", "tbl_Addresses", "ID = " & Address_ID) TxtBoxState = DLookup("State", "tbl_Addresses", "ID = " & Address_ID) TxtBoxZip = DLookup("Zip", "tbl_Addresses", "ID = " & Address_ID) End Sub HTH, Toby ----- Original Message ----- From: "jezmo_codpiece" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <AccessDevelopers@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Wednesday, July 13, 2005 4:53 AM Subject: [AccessDevelopers] best way to populate adress fields on a form > Hi guys, have a form to create a customer quote, and the user has two > combo boxes, first to pick the customer and then based on which > customer is chosen the second combo box displays a list of delivery > addresses.
