Create a query with a calculated field say "FullName", which is =[lastname]
&",  " &[firstName]

 

If you have a field for AKA, just in case you have several John Smith's, you
could add to the above after firstName the following:

 "( " & [AKA] &" )"

 

Use this query & field FullName as the source for your combobox.

 

Hope this helps.

Subject: [ms_access] Combo Box Help

 

I have a club database, there is a Table and Form for Race results.
I want a combo box to select and display race results for a member 
based on the last name first name. The problem is the combo box shows 
each of the last names Many Many times..  Tried to connect the combo 
Box selection to the members tablem (only lists each name once) without 
any sucess.
How do you use a different table in a combo box to select rows to view 
in a form??

Hope this is clear... Thanks for the help, you guys were great on my 
last question..

Carl
