I have a form to enter document information in a document table. I have made
two other tables with criteria for drop down lists on the form. When I
select information from the dropdown lists it does not show up in the
document table, only the info that was tyoed in the form appears. How can I
make these fields appear in the table?
 
Open your form in design view
Select the combo
Click on the Properties Icon
Select the Data Tab
Put your curson in the Control Source box
Click the arrow to the right of the box
Select the field you want the control bound to.
 
Thanks I figured it out

My guess would be that you do not have the combo boxes bound to fields in
your document table. Only fields bound to a control will be updated by your
form.
