Default BKF - SEARCH for specific record in table via combo box within for

I created a one table database with dataentry form. I capture basic info.
such as
"Item Numner" , "title", "last revision date" etc...

I would like to have a combo box (or list box) which ever is correct, list
all the "Item Numbers" so that I can select a specific number and have that
respective page with all information appear vs. scrolling via the record
search to find a specific record.

Thanks

You need a combo box. Use the wizard and it will do it all for you. You
need two fields in the combo. Item number (assuming that is the primary key)
and title which I assume is the name. Make Item Number the bound column and
hide it. The wizard will do it all for you. Select the option to find a
record in the wizard.
