I would like to place a combo box on my form that the user can select from,
then based on their selection, a new form will open.  

Can I make the combo box a form, and how?

Thank you!

I apologize....I mean can I make the combo box a macro...not form as I had
written below.

Emmz,

You can't "make the combobox a macro".  Or a form, for that matter.
Macros are separate database objects, that you assign on certain events.
 In this case, it sounds like the applicable event would be the After
Update event of the combobox.  And it sounds like the macro will use the
OpenForm action.
