Hello All,

I am a new user to Access. I am currently designing a database
consisting of four tables for multiple users. Rather than bore you
with the goals and such, here is what I am attempting to do:
I have two combo boxes, the first of which contains three text values
(Org 1, Org 2, Org 3) and the second combo box contains a listing of
30 or so clients. I would like to condense the second combo box based
upon the selection of the organization in the first combo box.

For example, if I select "Org 2", I would like it to show the roughly
10 clients that are associated with Org 2 rather than the other 20
clients which do not pertain to that org.

Thanks in advance for the help. Please remember I am a new user to
Access. I realized after reading this forum I will probably be
redesigning soon but would like to solve this issue while it is top of
mind.
Leave the Rowsource property of the second Combo Box blank.
Code the AfterUpdate event of the Combo1 to something like this:
Me![Combo2].Rowsource = "Select TableName.[ClientName] From TableName
Where TableName.Organization = '" & Me![Combo1] & "' Order By
[ClientName];"
This assumes the bound column of Combo1 is Text datatype, not Number.
Change the Table and Field names as needed.
