I tend to have labels to display certain items. I place them right next to the combo box. cboSeller.rowsource = "SELECT SellerID, SellerNo, SellerName FROM tblSellers" (column lengths are 0";.5";1.5") cboSeller_BeforeUpdate() me.lblSellerName.caption ="" End SUb cboSeller_AfterUpdate() me.lblSellerName.caption = nz(Me.cboCeller.Column(2),"") End Sub On Mon, Aug 8, 2011 at 2:36 PM, Stuart McLachlan <stuart at lexacorp.com.pg>wrote: > Correct.
