Hi Cetin,

I'm not sure where I do this. More info... I've got an "Add a new contact" button on FORM1 that calls FORM2 where the user adds a new contact record. Then FORM2's Save button releases FORM2, returning to FORM1. They're now back on my FORM1 with the dropdown lists having SQL statements querying CONTACTS.DBF as recordsources, one of which is named 'cmbATName' for example.

Where do I run the requery? Sorry to be a pain ;)
