diferent form

You probably shouldn't be populating "fields". You probably should be
displaying other field values in text boxes.

If you provide a little more information about your tables and form, maybe
someone can provide a solution.

It all has to do with customer info and parts i want the two tables to
populate a master form with like 7 fields number and letters.

Way to vague to make a guess regarding your tables, fields, form, and need
to store multiple copies of the same information.

Sorry, won't happen. You may find someone who would accept a project but I
prefer to keep communications in the News Groups.
If you do find someone, please be prepared to pay for their time.

You really haven't made much of an attempt to describe your setup and
requirements.

ok i was just checking i think its really hard to explain this im brad new at
this and have use up all ideas I have. Ok I have two tables, one is for
products and services with product ID used to look up, the other is customer
record with phone number as look up, and i all info from both pages displaied
in one record one a form and search for by phone number within that form. I
hope you understand. if that question bothered sorry you I just cant type
well i would reather talk.

Significant information is tables and fields. What are your table and field
names and what fields are use to link the tables?

There aren't generally "pages". Forms will display your data. A form has a
Record Source that is generally a table or query. Do you have a form? What
is its Record Source?

Apparently you want to select either a product ID or a phone number and
display the other fields from the table. If this is so, tell us what value
you are looking up and what fields you want to display.

thanks for contenuing with me. tables are 1. records, the fields are:
ID,customer name,phone number, address 2. products, the products fields are:
productID, product name, unitsinstock , and unit price.
The forms record source was the records table and the products table
looking up phone number in the record table and product id in the product
table

So these two tables are totally unrelated in any way. How could the form's
record source be both tables if they aren't related? Do you have an unbound
form with two combo boxes on it?
