Bind a control to a field

1. If the control is in a form or report, make sure that the form or report is based on a table or query. If the control is in a data access page, make sure that the data access page is connected to a database and that the section containing the control is bound to a record source.
2. Open the form, report, or data access page in Design view.
3. Make sure that the control is selected and then click Properties on the toolbar to open its property sheet.
4. In the ControlSource property box, enter the name of the field that you want to bind the control to.
