am I missing replies ? - Forms problem

Hi all

I have a drop down on a form from a look up - the drop down shows 2 fields -
1 name and 1 a numeric value. I want to use the second column (the numeric
value) in a calculation with an other field. Is there a way.

I can do Me!field1+Me!field2

but I need to reference the second column if field two not the first item ?

The Column property is zero-based, so the first column is Column(0), the
second column is Column(1), etc.
