trying to create a list in a subform thats restricted based on info entered in form

Hi There,

Sorry Im a newbie to access and hate reading through pages of text, hoping someone can help.

Within the main form, users key in details of an order including supplier details. Within the subform there is a list of products to choose from. I want to limit the list of products in the drop down list to those supplied by the supplier number keyed in the main form.

How would I do this?

Select whatever from yourtable where ID=" & me.parent.ID & ";"
