Create a query to obtain a dataset containing all the records in your table(s). Run the query to see if it works the way you want. Then, create a form to display the data you want to see. In the form, you would create a combo box with the RAM field as the source, so that when you open the form, all you'd have to do is select the Number from the drop-down list from the combo box.
