thanks
Got a pretty good idea what was going on.

I'm not going to continue on this course, cause it wasn't going to solve what i wanted to do.

I'm trying to create a form based on to related tables
lets say a customer and a order table
I want to skip through the orders table and change the customer belonging to a particular order. I want to do this using a combobox for the names of the customer.

I thought my first cause of action could take me here but i realise now...

Any comments, suggestions are very welcome.

Tia, victor
