The answer to this is probably simple but I have been out of the loop for a couple years and forgot how to do this.

I have a form with a combobox (unbound) that has the names of the tables that I have created.
The tables only have two fields in them
1. Key (Autonumber) (primary key)
2. Description (a memo field)

I need some help with a Command button click event that will look at the combo box for the table name and then put the contents of a text box (unbound) into the correct table and in the Description field.

I am doing this for work for myself and no one else will use it so error trapping is not necc.
I work in Tech Support and I have to document calls and alot of them are about the same thing...using notepad would be too long of a file to search thru. I support 10 diffrent softwares and I have tables for each of them.

Thank You in advance for any help or suggestions

If I understand you correctly....I am wondering why you need 10 tables when you could have 1 table and add a description field to the table and make it a drop down on your form.

Other then it's easy to add and it helps in debuging.
