The row source of the combo should include both fields
Select Code, Description From TableName

Now, you have to options to display the Description in another Text box
1. In the control source of the second text box you can write
= [ComboName].Column(1)

2. On the after update event of the combo you can write the code
Me.[TextBoxName] = Me.[ComboName].Column(1)
