How to fix a form and corresponding table relationship?

[Guest]

I enter data into a form from a corrresponding acronym table. The data in
the form is linked to a table and the data in the table is shown as the ID of
the acronym instead of the acronym.

If you're using a Combo Box to enter the acronym, change its
ColumnWidths property to set the width of the ID field (the first
field, probably) to 0. The ColumnCount should be 2, and the
ColumnWidths property should be

0;<some nonzero value>
