>>>That's not a problem. You should just 'reset' listbox2.rowsource in Listbox1.InteractiveChange event. Actual 'Resetting' depends on what RowSource you will use. I prefer to use cursor, and refill it each time user will pick up new value from the first list. Remember Listbox2.requery to get new appearance.

Actually I've not used cursors in forms. All a cursor is is a temporary database so would it make a difference to use the actual dbf?
