How do I adjust a property to enable Automation Operations in Acc.

[Guest]

I'm trying to generate the name of a customer in a textbox once the
associated customer ID is selected in a combo box using a macro. Does this
sound correct? When I do so, I'm told the following:

The object doesn't contain the Automation object 'Customer.'.
You tried to run a Visual Basic procedure to set a property or method for an
object.
However, the component doesn't make the property or method available for
Automation Operations.
Check the component's documentation for information on the properties and
methods it makes for Automation operations.

I can't find where to alter this feature! I appreciate any help you can
provide.

Thankyou.

If you have the customer id in the combo box, why not include the customer
name in the data you use to present the choices and then simply apply the
name to the textbox when the user chooses the employee number.
