Use your code behind the form to output a message box with the contents of the combo box immediately before your query MsgBox("CP-" & [forms]![frmRep]![cboRep] & "*") I expect it is just returning "CP-*" and therefore selecting all records, have a look and see if...

You can concatenate two fields using the plus symbol and collect the correct footnote using a simple where clause, try the following: SELECT Part.VID, Part.MFG, Part.DESCRIPTION + Foot.Footnote FROM tblPart as Part, tblFoot as Foot WHERE Part.FN1 = Foot.FootNoteID OR Part.FN2 = Foot.FootNoteID...

Your code is probably correct, access likes to grumble a lot about which line the code is on, the following should be fine, have as many ELSEIF's as you like, keep this line structure, let me know how it goes dim maxvalue as int IF [text1] = 'Apples' THEN @maxvalue = 13 ELSEIF [text1] =...
