Meneer aap, the purpose of a lookup component is to display information that is contained in another table, then the one you are working in.
Example: You have a table named orders, and the only information about the employee who have entered the order is the employee_id.
With the DBLookup(combo or list)box you can take the employee name out of the Employee table, and make it visible on your display.

Remember you are working on Orders, why you would be making changes to Employees? It is possible but then you have to make your own post routines that handles the two datasets.
