Hi again,

For the field "prior education," I want to make a drop-down box that has
options such as high school, GED, college, etc. However, I want numbers to
appear in the actual datasheet rather than text (e.g. high school = 1, GED =
2). The help file in access is not helping me very much. Could someone give
me some guidance?

Thanks!
 
Start by creating a table of your lookup with two fields. Then use the combo
box wizard while in form design to add the control. Some times the wizard
does too much for you but you can edit the combo box properties after the
wizard has finished.
 
Thanks for all your help with my questions!
