If Gpcode is text:
=DLookUp("[Gpcode]","[Conwydata]","[Gpcode] =""" & [gp_practice] & """")
or, if it's a number:
=DLookUp("[Gpcode]","[Conwydata]","[Gpcode] =" & [gp_practice])

I think where you're going wrong is with the basic concept. Your names and
addresses should be in a lookup table so that, when you select a name you
get the address data (and any other data pertinent to the name selected) for
free.
Take a look at the way they handle "customers" in the Northwind sample
database that ships with Access.

Does anyone know how to get an auto-filling combobox on a form?
When I add a combobox to a form I can set the DropDownStyle property to
DropDownList. This will make the combobox auto-filling. But the user then
can't enter text in the combobox which isn't in the list.
So I have to set the DropDownStyle property to DropDown to enable the user
to enter text which isn't in the list. But unfortunately the combobox
doesn't auto-fill the text...

Hi all,
In VB.NET you can set the DropDownStyle for a combobox to 'DropDown' or
'DropDownList'. When you set it to DropDownList, it supports auto-fill. But
when you set it to 'DropDown', the auto-fill support is gone.
How can I get auto-fill on a combobox with a dropdownstyle 'DropDown'?
