Combo Box on Forms

Hi,

I am using a combo box on a form that has several items w/ one being
Other. If the user selects other I want them to be able to input what
they want so that it will go into the table instead of just the
"Other". I just am not really sure on how to do that. Can you help?

Thanks,
Jaime

Thanks, that does help. I realized there are 2 other selections in
the combo box : Sales-Other and DOC-Other . Is there a way I can
maybe trigger a pop-up box or message that allows the user to enter
text with either one of these "Other" selections. For example, if the
user picks Sales-Other then they are prompted to enter their own
reason. So in the table I am using the entry would look like; Sales-
Other "user's reason"? Thanks for the help!
