Hi Karen, I hope I am not too late to help. You can use the combo box wizard. Draw the combo in the form header. I think it is the third option. Set form to record based on combo box selection. Walk all the way through the wizard. In the row source (I think) on the data properties tab. This is query builder. This where I forgot some create a field called Patient Name ( or what ever you want) = Lname&", "&fname&" "&Mname Have it sort acending. When some one selects a patient the form populates with there data.

I have fields Lname, Fname and Mname. In the query on the Lname field I have the following as the criteria: Like "*" & [Enter Last Name] & "*" This works fine to pick all the Johnsons, including "Johnson, Jr." However, the report is then returning all the Johnsons in sequence, but I only want 1 particular Johnson with his/her individual details. How do I get the query to give me a list of "Johnsons," including first and middle names, from which I can pick the right patient to plop into the report?
