Had to give up and go to bed <g>
This is just a matter of my understabnding lookup. I have
had the lookup working with PARTLIST joined to ORDER_ITEM so
that DESCRIPTION from PARTLIST is is displayed linked to
PARTNO. But in the final setup, I don't want the join at
all, just the list of PARTNO to select the insert into the
PARTNO field of ORDER_ITEM.
I was 'playing' with all sorts of bits yesterday, so I can't
see the wood fro the trees, and can't see an example of the
'simple' look-up.
So the question is probably - how do I set up a simple list,
or do I have to have the join?
