Help With Combo Box

I have a combo box on a form that lists description of defect types. This combo box is based on a table called Defect Codes. Sometimes we need to add a defect description so I created a small form that can be opened by a button on the main form to add the defect. However the defect then doesn't show up in the combo box until I close the main form. Is there a way to make the newly added defect show up without closing the main form?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You could try:

DoCmd.Requery "your combo box"

on exit of your small form.
 
i think you should use continuous form or like lars7
try
cbo.requery
