Using a Combo Box to Find Records
In that case, it might be safer to use
Me.cboMoveTo = Me.SetupID instead of Me.cboMoveTo = Me.cboMoveTo.ItemData(1) Jeanette Cunningham MS Access MVP -- Melbourne Victoria Australia "Scott_Brasted via AccessMonster.com" u56211@uwe wrote in message news:9f3fcce915429@uwe... OK, I woke up this mornng withyet another idea. This time it was a good one. I took Jeanette's code and replaced the Me.[cboMoveTo] = Me.[cboMoveTo].ItemData(0) with Me.[cboMoveTo] = Me.[cboMoveTo].ItemData(1) ans voila, magic and all that. Simple is great. Mant thanks for for the persistance. Best, scott Jeanette Cunningham wrote: That combo searches using SetupID. From reading through all your previous posts, I assume that the primary key of the form is something other than SetupID. For the code line with ItemData(0) to work, the combo must search on the primary key field of the form. However, if the form has only value for SetupID when it opens, you could try code like this-- Me.cboMoveTo = Me.SetupID Put that one line of code in the Form_Load event. If the form has more than one value for SetupID when it opens, the code above won't work. If it doesn't work, leave the combo blank when the form opens.
