Set up the row source for the second combobox to use the value in the first
combobox. And then in the change event of the Countries combobox, requery the second combobox. So your row source for the States combobox would be SELECT State FROM CountriesAndStates WHERE Country like Nz(Forms![NameOfTheForm]![NameOfCountryCombobox],"*") Your code in the after update event of the CountryCombobox would be Me.NameOfStatesCombobox.Requery. NOTE that this does not work well in a continuous form. Since there is really only one combobox on the continuous form - you just see multiple images of the control. And you would need to requery the States Combobox in the current event of the form in order to see the state values for the current record. There are various ways to handle the situation if you are using a continuous form.
