No. :) I'm talking about the built-in lookup field feature that lets you display a related value from another table. Open a table in Design view and click the Lookup tab in the Properties pane. Developers soundly trash them, but I find them rather cool -- and if abused, is that Access's fault? ;) I'm mostly in favor of anything that makes Access more available to the average user -- it IS a desktop application after all. No, I don't use them, and I often have to "undo" them in Northwind when I'm using that db in an article example, but I can see why users would like and use them. Here we goooooooooooooooooooo! ;) Susan H. Susan, I've seen people joke about this before and I've just assumed I knew what they were referring to ("hard coded" delimited lists that are not stored in a table). Is this a correct assumption?
