Hi Jim,
try this
Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()
TextBox1.Text =3D ComboBox1.Text
End Sub
If the font is the same for every entry you can just set that for the
text box,
if you want it to change with different choices this should do it
Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()
Select Case ComboBox1.Text
Case "a"
TextBox1.Font.Name =3D "Times New Roman"
TextBox1.Font.Size =3D 16
Case "b"
'put your font sizes here
Case "c"
'put your font sizes here
Case Else
TextBox1.Font.Name =3D "Arial"
TextBox1.Font.Size =3D 12
End Select
TextBox1.Text =3D ComboBox1.Text
End Sub

Insert trigger
Looking for some advice on SQL 2005. I have a table that will usually be populated by an SSIS package. I want to set the "loaddate" column to the current time after a record is inserted.

how do I format text as strikethrough in Publisher 2003?

How do I insert a reference to lookup and insert a name
How do I insert a reference code in one column which will then look up a reference table and then insert the name in the next column. eg if I type the letter b in column 1 then the word 'bank' will appear in column 2. If I type the letter i in column 1 then the word 'insurance' will appear in column 2 etc etc look at VLOOKUP in Help. -- HTH Bob Phillips "Jan K" <Jan K@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:C6CDAC92-DB48-49A7-803F-BF494F5221AB@microsoft.com... > How do I insert a reference code in one column which will then look up a > r...
