Access Form changes

Start off, I'm not a programmer.

Is there a way with out knowing VB to have a chose in a form that if you select one of the three options it changes the information?

For Example, I have a form that collects personal information and property information. The personal information will be the same for each person but the property information is different for each of the 3 different types of property. I would like to have the 3 types on the form, and select the type needed, and have the right information for that property show up in the form.

you could use macros.

use a tab control and create a page for each property type. then in the properties window set each pages visible to false so none will be visible when you open the form.
in the after update event of the combobox to select the property type create a macro.
in the macro screen make the conditions column visible.
in the condition column create a condition for the first property type
forms!propertyinfo!propertytype = type1 (for example)
then use the setvalue action to set the visible property to true for the page to enter data for property type1. repeat to set page2 and 3 to false.
change the condition to type 2 and set that page to visible.
etc...
