Is it possable to set up a relationship between two

different tables.

Requests
REQIMEI (15 digit serial number)

Handsets
Manufacturer
Model
Prefix (6 digit prefix)

What i would like to do is to stetup a form whreby the

dlookup function but
it only shows the mdoel when the form is closed then re-

opened

Some help would be appreciated
