Hi,

Use F4 key

It opens it without using mouse.

If you want to do it programatically check the option dropdown in the access help

I didn't know about F4 PEB. Thanks for that.
I've always used Alt-{Down Arrow} - which seems to do the same job.
Obviously, for it to work, you need to have the relevant field selected.

Personally, I think an "expert" is just someone who's not too proud to learn, regardless of how much they think they know.
