Combo box browsing question

Is it possible to browse a combo box, and as each name on the combo
list is highlighted , the linked record is displayed?

Currently I must highlight the name and then hit Enter to show each
record, which really slows down the browsing procedure.

If not, is there an easy way to browse, similar to what I am asking ,
but not using a combo control?
The form that the combo is on is a tabbed form with a subform.

TIA Ric
 
This would require that the combobox fire an event when each row is selected,
which it doesn't. Comboboxes on raise an event when something is selected or
typed.

Ric, what you currently have (highlighting an item from a cmbo box, pushing
Enter, and displaying a record) is exactly what I am trying to figure out how
to do. I have a form where I list Comany's and on that page I want to display
that companies details. How do I do this? I am an entry level programmer but
I know that it probably has to be code or Macro in the OnCurrent or
AfterUpdate event right? Thanks

I could help you but first I'd need to know more info.
Things like the tables (names and fields etc.) of your Company stuff,
Company details etc.
