Hi Guys,

Looking to see if it is possible to create a dropdown menu list, like a jump menu to go to a specific record upon selection. I currently have an list of clients split over 10 pages and would prefer as a quicker way to navigate would be to select it from a drop down list.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

yes this is quite possible, you probably need two elements. Firstly a
recordset that will fill the list, and then a link to the detail element. If
the later is to be in a list then creating a named anchor in the list and
creating a link that included that would be the answer

Can you explain what you mean by 'creating a named anchor in the list and creating a link that included that'

Currently when I create the combo box (dropdown list) it simply selects the 1st item in the list.
