    Welcome to VBForums

    Thread moved to Database Development forum (the "VB6" forum is meant for questions which don't fit in more specific forums)

    Take a look at the 2 articles in the "Data bound controls" section of our Database Development FAQs/Tutorials (at the top of this forum). If the second article doesn't supply the answer, the first article explains what is likely to be your best option (even if the second article does solve it).
