Default Need Help Desparately - will pay for phone consult

I need help setting up multiple (3) combo boxes in Access where as the result will display in a separate field based on the choice from each combo box. I have displayed examples in its most simple form and no one seems to understand what it is I am trying to achieve. I am willing to pay someone who knows and understands combo boxes to help me for a couple of hours (phone consultation). It would be very helpful if this person is able to have remote access to my computer. Please only serious people respond. I am located in Houston.

Michelle,
It looks like you have Helen Fedema's book, correct? What is your experience with VBA or programming in general? (Have you worked with events and properties?). If we can better define where you need assistance and what resources you have available(such as books, HELP) I may be able to assist you off line via e-mail. (mcDonnol and Greg gave you a solution- do you understand how to implement it?

My knowledge of VBA is very minimal and yes I have the the Access Application Development and Beginning Access 2000 books. The application I am trying to develop is pretty basic and most of the functions and commands I need to create can be created with macros and functions. Maybe the terminology I am using is (all wrong). That's the reason I need to talk to someone by phone. My direct email address is [email protected], feel free to email me and I can better explain what I am tying to do and you can let me know what your charge would be. I only need help with this one little problem

We are using Office 97. Will cascading combo boxes work in 97? Where can I find instructions on how to create them?
