    <p>To clarify:</p> <p>You open up Access and are presented with a form that contains a combo box filled with some values. You select one of the values and want to bring up a different form and then fill that form out based on some criteria.</p> <p>The sub routine Combo0_EventName() will take care of opening a form based on the field you select, just put the code in the Combo0_AfterUpdate() routine. To get to that right click on the combo box in design view and select Properties, then click in the "AfterUpdate" event to get [Event Procedure] to show up then click the ... button to get the VB editor.</p> <p>If you want to fill out the form you open up automatically the method depends on what you are trying to do. You probably want to have another combo box on the first form or on the other forms you are opening that allows you to select your query parameters. Lets say you are opening a form that displays someone's address. You would want a combo box on that form to select from the names in your table and when you select a name it would update a textbox with the address information. Or you could put your query parameter selection on the main form and tie that data to all of the forms so you can go through the forms with the same entry in the table, useful for something like order entry.</p> <p>If that sounds like what you are trying to do we can move forward down that path, or if it is not please clarify. Can you describe an example of what you are doing? That would be helpful.</p> <p>I'm sure we can get you going with this.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
