Hi, I am trying to create a combo box but I realised that there is
difference between a bound and an unbound combox box. Can anyone kindl
explain to me what are their differences and how can I create a boun
combo box?

Thanks!!!

A bound control of any type (combo box, list box, textbox, etc.) has a "Control Source",
which is its source of saved data. Bound combo boxes are typically used to select a value
from a list, and save the selected value for each record. Unbound controls do not have a
Control Source. A typical use of an unbound combo box is to find a record in a form's
underlying recordset.

You can create a bound combo box by assigning a field from your table or query as the
combo boxes' Control Source.
