Bob, I just noticed something interesting, but kind of unrelated. While I was trying to figure out what's happening for YOU, I noticed that there needs to be a Me.Refresh in the "ADD ORDER" button on the CustomerF form. I just added a customer and hit ADD ORDER and did NOT see the customer in the dropdown because the customer record was still dirty (pencil - being edited). Make sure to add a Me.Refresh into that button. I'll add an addendum to the latest class about that.

As far as what's happening to YOU, I can't seem to recreate that problem. Are you adding the order from the ADD ORDER button on the CustomerF form? Or are you closing the CustomerF form and then going straight to the OrderF form?

In any case, it's the CustomerCombo box that creates the relationship between customers and orders. If you don't fill that in first, it won't save the order properly under that customer.

If you use the ADD ORDER button, it should automatically fill in the CustomerCombo for you. Aside from that little bug I mentioned before, everything appears to be working fine.

I anyone else experiencing this problem?
