Hi
I have a combo box on form data2 with following in row source
SELECT [detail].[LotJob] FROM detail WHERE
StockCode=[Forms]![Data2]!StockCode;
This works but if type in combo box this is accepted even if not in list
as there are lots of lotjob against stockcode would like to be able to enter
lotjob but only accept if in list
Thank you
Tina

What is in the LimitToList property of your combo box?
