i have a subform which is a continuous form. i would like the user to be
able to chose a record from a combo box and have that record have the focus
when the user chooses it from the combo box.
 
Hey Pep. Under design view for your form, click on "Combo Box" on your
toolbox and insert it in there. Then right click on the combo box itself and
go under the "Data" tab. Down at "Row Source Type" make sure you set it to
Value list; I think it defaults at Table/query. Then see what your Control
Source (at the top of that lil list thing) is. I think--heavy emphasis on
think--that you set that to the table's field that contains your records.
Then, theoretically, you should be able to use the combo box to select
whichever record you want.

I hope this helps and I *hope* it's right! (I am new to this)
