The form has a property sheet. The controls; combos, listbox, textbox,
labels...they have a property sheet as well. The recordsource is the
recordset associated with the entire form. So if the form's
recordsource is using an invalid table, you need to open the property
sheet of the form. Open up the propertysheet for anything and press on
the square box in the upper left hand corner of the form window to get it.
I'm a bit confused with your question. A combo box is good for lookups
and storing some to a field in the table.
