Is any-one able to help me i am currently making a database for a restraunt and I am trying to get a price to display when I select a type of drink followed by a size both these values should correspond to give the price any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated

There are a few ways to do this, but this is probably the simplest. Make a compound key field based on the type and size. So, assuming that your fields are called "DrinkType" and "Size," you could make a calculated key field "TypeSize" with the formula:

DrinkType & Size

Then use TypeSize as the key field to your price table relationship.

Then in your related price table, you need to have a record for every drink type and size combination with a corresponding key field TypeSize. Like so:

TypeSize Price

--------------

BeerSmall $2.50

BeerMedium $3.00

BeerLarge $4.00

ScotchSmall $3.00

ScotchLarge $4.00

MartiniSmall $3.50

MartiniLarge $4.50

etc.
