How can I link a text box to a drop down data source?

I have a data source linked to a drop dop box that lists the company name.
Under the name area I need the address to show, I placed a text box
underneath but I can't get the address to link to the company, my data
source is in access.

Can someone tell me how to set the rules, I feel like I tried everything but
I still can't get it to work.

Chris,

I need a little more information before I can answer this precisely. When
you set up the drop down, did you set the display name to the company name
and the value to the address field? Do you want the textbox value to be set
to the current value (i.e., address) selected in the dropdown? If the
answer to both of these questions is yes, then one solution is the set the
default value of the textbox to the current value of the dropdown using the
formula dialog.

Let me know if that helps.
