Combo box question

E

Ok- I am a beginning access user so coding etc. is rather confusing to me. I
have a survey I am creating a form for. One of the questions has a combobox
dropdown with a choice of 5 options. I can get the combo box to show the
options but I cannot get it to allow me to select an option for the field.
What am I doing wrong?
I've linked the row source to the table with the options, control source to
the table I want the data to go, and the row source type to Table / Query.

Help!

If the combo box won't let you make a selection, it's because the field that
is in its Control Source is not editable (is it a calculated field in the
form's Record Source? or is it an autonumber field?), or the form's Record
Source query is not updatable, or the form's AllowEdits property is set to
No.
