    This is probably simple, but I haven’t figured it out yet.

    I have two tables – Originators (containing ID#, Originator, Organization, and Phone#) and Trouble Reports (containing Autonumber, Originator, Organization, Phone#, Trouble Description, Solution).

    I’ve got the Originator field in the Trouble table to read the Originator field in the Originators table. What I now want to do is if “Joe” is selected as the Originator, then Joe’s Organization and Phone# would automatically fill in. I just can’t figure out how to do this. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks.

      in your query for the form have the Originator
      control set for the criteria for the query
      then in the afterupdate event of the Originator control
      place this code
      me!requery
      everything should automatically fill in
