I have a table pr-generator which has a subform of the same name. These both access data frm tables indents and indent details respectively.

There is a textbox item_code in the sub form.

Now I want to add item_description next to item_code. Also I have a separate table for storing both item_code and item_description. So if in pr-generator subform the item_code is entered I want its relevant item_description to appear in the textbox adjacent.

Help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance

You need to write a query against your item_code/item_description table to retrieve the description for any item_code that is passed to it. Queries like this are called Parameterized Queries

You can read about them:
here[^]
and
here[^]
and in lots of other places, if you can come up with a suitable search phrase.
