Is there a way to have hyperlinks in a combo box, so that the user would make a selection, and it would open an object in the current database?
 
Create a field in your table that's a hyperlink. In design view, click on the field and under Type, click the dropdown arrow and select Hyperlink. Then in your table's datasheet view, click in a cell and then click on Insert, Hyperlink. On the left (Access 2000 >) pick what type of hyperlink - to an URL, Email, or object within the database.

Then Create a combobox off this field.
