Help with limiting a field list based on another field in same tab

[Cam]

Hello,

I am trying to create a form where there are fields in the table which
include Order#, Oper#, Mach#, etc.. I also have another appended table with
simular info except numbers of Oper# depended on Order# (these changes daily
depending on what operation the orders are at).

What I would like to acheive is when the user enter the Order# field, then
the Oper# field list is limited (filtered) based on the Order# selected?
In the Row Source on the Oper# field query, I put the criteria
"[tbl]![DataEntry]!Order#" under Order# criteria, but each time I select the
Oper# field, it pop up a message using to input the Order#. I would like it
to somehow tie to the Order# field so user wouldn't have to re-enter the
Order# in the pop up.

Thanks

Answered in another group. Please do not multipost (post the same question in
different groups) - it wastes the volunteers' time answering questions which
may have been already answered elsewhere. If you must post in multiple groups
(it's rarely necessary, most of the volunteers cover several), crosspost
instead (post to all the groups simultaneously).
