Memo Help Box

[Afrosheen via AccessMonster.com]

Thanks for reading my post.

I have a table called tblHelp. In it it has a text field and a memo field.
The text field called header is the topic. The memo field is called
Instructions.

What I've done is create a subform called Helpsubform. All the memo fields
come up as they are supposed to.

I have another form called Supervisors. What I want to do here is to put the
Helpsubform on the Supervisors form and have it look up the instructions from
the tblHelp header then displaying the instructions in the Helpsubform sub
form. Can this be done?

I can do it with an unbound text box, but what I'm trying to do is keep
consistency with other forms.

Again, thanks for your help.

To be honest, you'd be better off creating a custom help file and then
associating the controls to the topix. If you google you should be able to
find plenty of apps geared toward creating the files.
