This explains a lot of the problem. &nbsp;Since the original programmer created this in VBA to populate a list box, I simply commented out the code and in the property for records once, selected Table/Query and created the query there. &nbsp;Works properly now. &nbsp;Went back and did this for all the list boxes, reduces the code but still get the same results. &nbsp;Thank you.<br />

Good choice. &nbsp;That is a far better method. &nbsp;In other programming environments, the equivalent to list/combos isn't bound so you needed code to fill the RowSource. &nbsp;Luckily for us, Access combos and listboxes are bound to the RowSource so no code is needed. &nbsp;So, programmers who learned VB first for example, tend to write a lot more code than they need to.

include comma in name in results of VBA statement query

Microsoft Access is a rapid application development (RAD) relational database tool. Access can be used for both desktop and web-based applications, and uses VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) as its coding language.

Microsoft Access

Most development for the Microsoft platform is done utilizing the technologies supported by the.NET framework. Other development is done using Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) for programs like Access, Excel, Word and Outlook, with PowerShell for scripting, or with SQL for large databases.
