I'm fairly new to VB, and I was wondering how to use an object other than the default data controls to sort through a database. In other words, I would like to be able to make the "Data" object invisible, and use a drop down list to sort through a particular column, thus changing which row is active (so it would change the other things on the form that are affected by changing which row of the Db is active).

Thanks for any help,
Mr.T3
