I am an Access novice and am having trouble creating a specific filter. In form view, how can I select a specific building in one combo box and have the next combo box , "aparments", show only those apartments in the selected building?

Code the AfterUpdate event of the first combo something like this:

Sub cboBuilding_AfterUpdate()

Me.cboApartment.Rowsource = "Select ApartmentNumber From tblApartments Where
BuildingNumber =" & Me.cboBuilding

End Sub

Of course, you'll need to substitute your field and control names.
