I'd like to create a ComboBox that has entries that when clicked on can provide a list of choices related to the entry originally clicked on and store that value in a table. Hope this makes sense!

Here is an example, using listboxes. They are not bound to data, but could be easily made that way:

Arvin,
Thanks for the info - very helpful. If I want to store the selection in a 'master' table, do I make the listboxes bound to that table?

Arvin,
If you happen to get this - the example you sent works well. I would like to have the values of both listboxes populate my master table fields. I can get the product name but the catagorie uses the ID number instead of the description. That's ok if I could write a query against the master table and sub the ID with the description but haven't been successful. Can you help again?
Thanks!
