in a form:
how do you automatically update a textbox after u've clicked a value in combo box with the value matching in the same row.

eg. say you selected a name in the combo box, it will automatically update 2 text boxes with matching addresses and birthdays from the same row.


here's a rough sample code i've tried to implement which doesn't work

text4.value = "select distinctrow cables from [pricing]" _
& "Where rating = [forms]![pricing]![rating]"

i've spent hours. and tried different other things like on change etc. still can;t get it. smart it dudes out there please help!

thanks
Mike

That will put the text "select distinctrow cables from [pricing]Where rating = [forms]![pricing]![rating]"
into text4.
I suspect you want to query the table and put the result into the textbox (maybe by a bound textbox if that's available but I would do it explicitly). And want the value of "[forms]![pricing]![rating]" rater than the text.

Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.
DTS can be used in a similar way.
