Company Combo Upload Images   Link

I have a table based combo box. I have a company number for each company in a separate table . When I use my form the company number is showing up in my attached table instead of the company name. I choose the company name when i design the combo box? any idea what I am doing wrong?

Reply from Alex Hedley:

Usually the first column in the Combo is the one that is bound to the Field.
You're Combo is likely to have ID as the first column then Company Name as the 2nd, and ID will be hidden.
You will want to keep it like this.
Now just create a Query that joins your CompanyID to the CompanyT and pull in the Company Name to show elsewhere.
