Hi all,

I have a form that writes to a table. Depending on the value I select in a combo box, a few dlookup values get generated in other controls. Unfortunately, the values are displayed only after the record is saved by going to a new record and going back to the previous record. Unfortunately none of the values are stored in the table. I need the dlookup values to be stored as I go along. How do I fix this problem?

Thanks,

Cosette who feels hopeless
 
Have you tried the Requery Method to refresh your form?
Do you have the DLookup in the control source of the field?
 
Thank you, Requerying on update was the key.
