Thanks for your response it was a incorrect table listed in the field control set up. So now I can perform a look up, issue #1: The look up field wont work in a portal? Issue #2: And If I select 'drop down menu' intead of 'pop up' then I only get one of the two fields identified--on pop up setting it shows color code and color name, on drop down it only shows color code (no Color Name)?. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

I have gone over this and over this, following every step (which doesn't seem complicated) and I can't get the look up Auto entry to work at all. It worked yesterday, but not today. I'm sure with my monkeying around with the layout I might have inadvertently changed something, but I can't find where I screwed up? I am a beginner and would love somehelp other than the manual. Thanks in advance.

I've read the posts that are related, and reindexed the fields. unindex, get out of program, back in program re-index. I have a portal (in Lab dip tracking table) with auto entry look up from another table (Color Table). When I make a selection color code and color name a ghost code appears. If I select again the correct color is displayed but isn't saved (although the ghost code saves)?? Please help. I am trying to allow several drop down/pop up colors to be added to each record.
