I seem to have hit a brick wall. Hope someone can help. I am trying to create an FAQ database for use in the office. I have a form bound to tblQuestion QuestionID PK TopicID FK from tblTopic I want a dropdown control in the header that will look up topics in tblTopic and afterupdate find all the questions on this topic. I need the dropdown control to contain the topic as well as the TopicID. I tried using the wizard but the control does not contain the topic unless I bind the form to an SQL statement that contains both tables. When I use this SQL: SELECT tblQuestion.QuestionID, tblQuestion.TopicId, tblTopic.Topic, tblQuestion.Question, tblQuestion.QuestionerID, tblQuestion.Answer, tblQuestion.SourceID, tblQuestion.DateAsked, tblQuestion.DateAnswered, tblQuestion.OtherSourceID, tblQuestion.Reference, tblQuestion.Notes FROM tblTopic INNER JOIN tblQuestion ON tblTopic.TopicID = tblQuestion.TopicId; And then try to use the wizard to create the find dropdown I get this error: Syntax error in FROM clause If I change the location of Topic ID i.e. tblTopic.TopicID I get the same error. I know I am missing something basic here, I just can't figure out what it is. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
