November 16, 200817 yr Hi All, I'm wondering if someone can help me out here because i just cannot work out how you would go about doing this... let me explian. I have 3 tables in a database: companies, addresses, contacts. So one company can have many contacts and addresses. What i am trying to do is i have created a drop down box on my contact where i can select what address ID that contact is at... and what i want to be able to do is display the rest of the address details for that address ID but i just cannot work it out. Any advice is welcome. Thanks in advance, ieuuk
November 17, 200817 yr You need to add a relationship between Contacts and a new occurrence of the Addresses table, matching on AddressID. Once you have that, you can place fields from this occurrence onto the contacts layout.
November 17, 200817 yr Author Thank you for the response... i think i must be missing something though. What i dont appear to be able to get is the address to change with the location ID... not quite sure where im going wrong. Any ideas? Thanks, ieuuk
