>The problem that you are having is that the controlsource of the combo has not hcanged when teh interactivechange event fire because controls update thier controlsources just before the Vlaid fires. So when you requery in the interactivechange, it works, but nothing changes becuase the combo's value has changed but it has not yet updated the underlying field in the view. If you do the same thing in the valid it also wokrs, but in this case the controlsource for the combo has been updated and so you see a different result. Fior the behavior that you want you will need ot use the valid event to do the requery.

Ahh... thank you!

I thought the answer would be something like this. I am printing this one for the "foxpro" file.

Perhaps this was a case of using a roberson instead of a phillips? :-)
