I'm constructing a food menu database. What I want to do is have a drop
down menu and when a particular food item is clicked on, a picture of the
food item is shown as well as its ingredients. Any advice on how to start
this? I'm very new to Access (2000). I will appreciate any help on this
topic. Thank you.
 
I am a novice at Access compared to most of the
individuals in this newsgroup but a way to do this is to
use visible in VB. I'm sure there is a better way but the
way I do it is:

On Current form properties
me.Apple_Pie.visible = false (picture you want to see

After Update function for the combo box.

if me.combo1 = "Apple Pie" then
me.ApplePie.visible = true

The image will be hidden when the form is loaded and when
you select on the food item (apple pie), the image
associated with it will show.

Hope this helps.
