Why does it do this?

[richo]

I have several tables set up and when l use the look up wizard to creat a combo box from one table to another the data type changes from text to a number which means l cannot create a subform as l can't link the chid and master fields due to different data types. WHy does it do this?

Check that the field supplying the lookup data is the same data type as the destination field. If they are not you should modify them so that they match (IE: text to text, number to number, etc...)
