I have 2 combo boxes and select information based on one another. After the
2nd combo box it updates the next field and then I tab to the next and all
threee feilds disappers before i can finish filling out the other 10 fields
on the form/

What do you mean by "disappears"?

If you mean the values, mybe the cursor moves to a new record, if that the
case, check the fields tab order, and set it so it will loop through all the
fields.

When I tab to another field the combo box items I choose then go to blank-
Like it is saving the data before I reach the end of the form.
I choose "apples" and it stays until i tab down the rest of the feilds and
apples will disappear. Apples is the seleciton i chose in the combo box

Open the form in design view, in the menu bar select View > TabOrder, check
the fields order and set it so it will move throgh all the fields in the form.
Probably the combo is the last field in the TabOrder, set it to be first.
