I think these questions are pretty basic, as I've done much more complicated things before. But now I've got brain fade!
I have a form to enter new records in a single table. I want the user to selct a value from a two column combo box that is derived from a different table. Once the value is selected, I want to update two fields in the table with the matching values in the two columns. I've got the combo box working on one field but how do I update the other with the second value. (I need the two values even though they are always synchronised, because they get concatenated with other fields. I dont mind if the two fields are shown on the form, or just the combo box with the selected values.
Next question:
I have a field that has a list box derived from a query based on the table that I am updating. Once I have entered a record, I want the value to be available in the list box when creating the next record. How do I refresh the query without having to close my form and reopen it?
Thanks for any help.
