You might be better off adding a column to the combobox (if you set that column width to 0, it won't be seen in the pulldown). Then your textbox source is like this:
=cboDescription.Column(2) This is faster, and if you are using a subform, you won't have all the values changing as you would with an unbound field. I'm assuming here that column 0 is the key field, column 1 is the one that shows, and column 2 is your description field.

But I can't get it to update automatically without physically hitting the "F9". Is there a way to automatically update this field after changing the value in the combo box? Thanks!
