>Fields or alias, honestly I don't know the difference and never worried about it. My favorite is using SQL (I can format and order the way I want and still yet have access to all columns that're not part of listbox columns)

Ignore my previous post. I have populated the RowSource and RowSourceType in the Form.Init() and got the jing-bang working using a cursor also created in the Form.Init().

Thanks a lot for your help.
