Autofill

[SteveI]

HI,

I am desperate to get autofill to work in Access 2007. I have read all the info but just cannot get it to work. Can anybody help. please.

I have a form that I need to complete : once I select the code from the drop down list the description (that corresponds to that code) must appear in the form. The code and description obviously come from another table.

Does this help?

Hi Paul,

Sorry to disappoint - yours was the first post I looked at and did give it a try - and I think the problem lies with me. I would be able to understand better if you had an example perhaps.

Thank you so much.
Steve

Paul may be able to give you something better, but take a look at the attached db and see if this helps.

Or perhaps you can post your failing effort and we can fix it.

Vassago, do you have the ability to move the thread to the appropriate forum?

Hi Paul,

Thanks so much. It looks fairly easy and straight forward - if not I will send you the failing attempt. And I will post in the correct forum next time.
