Dorris,
I would than create the cursor with myTable.myFIield and would also use the cursor as controlsource for the combo
Find attached a zip-file with a working form, try it with my name Koen Piller and retry it with your name
I am listed 2x in the Officer.dbf so the combo filles with 2 reccords, you are listed only 1time and therefore not listed.
Is that what you are looking for?
Regards,
Koen
