Lookup columns using existing tables - Access 2002
I am using the lookup wizard to create a lookup column
using an existing table within my database however I get an "automation error". I can get as far as choosing the table and the fields then get "Automation error. The specified procedure could not be found." I can create a manual lookup table however this defeats the purpose. I've tried detect & repair and reinstalling Access 2002. This is a brand new database created in Access 2002. Any suggestions? Thanks. Mary

Yes; avoid the use of the misleading, misdesigned, and all but useless Lookup feature altogether: http://www.mvps.org/access/lookupfields.htm Instead, create Forms to display your data, and use the toolbox Combo Box Wizard to create combo boxes ("lookups") on the Form.
