Access drop down format question
I have a drop down box that only shows our first bit of infomation. See the image:
As you can see, the line we select shows more information than the drop down does. I would like the drop down to show all of that information as well.
If this does not display, I will reformat it, so let me know.

Exactly what I needed. Thank you.
As evidenced by the comma separating the "bits of information"
Please know that once you need to display more than about 3 fields, you would typically display/select just the the name and display the "other bits of information" directly on the form (so that they are easier to read.)
...else your combo total width will be unnecessarily long.
1. It is not clear from your post what you are ultimately doing with these selections.
2. Nor is it clear how these "bits of information" are actually stored in the table...
If you provide the answer to both of the above questions, then we can suggest more targeted solutions.
Until then, examine this very basic sample
