Combobox selection to show data in other fields

Simple question I'm sure. I have a combobox listing various company names. Below the combobox there are address, city and state boxes. When a person selects a company, can I have the address city and state boxes autofill based on data already stored in a table for the selected company?

New to Access...I'm sure you already figured that out based on this question :)

Thanks for all your help Bytes Members!

Yes, you can and there are several different ways you can do it. The link below has a free working demo database with source code. This demo shows how to populate a form and/or text box controls based on the user's selection from a combo box. The demo shows five methods of populating text boxes based on a combobox including: DAO, ADO, Filter, DLookup, and Combobox column values
