Combo box wizard not working as expected

I'm creating a database that needs to track many many items related to
one employee. To do this, I have had to split up the data into
multiple tables, each with an ID field, with each ID field having a
one-to-one relationship with the ID field in the "personal" table.
On each form (which deals with one table only), I want to have a combo
box assist in changing records quickly, so when you're done with one
person, save the info, and then you can use the combo box to quickly
go to the next record you need to deal with. I therefore need the
combo box to change records based on info in the "personal" table.
The problem is, the combo box wizard is not giving me the "Find a
Record on My Form Based on the Value I selected in My Combo Box"
option. At first, I did get the option, but could only choose fields
from the form I was working with. So I tried adding fields from the
"personal" table (intending to hide them if they had to stay on the
form), but now I don't get the wizard option I need.
Any ideas? I'm hoping to make navigation to different records in the
form simpler than using the bar at the bottom that access provides.
I'm not "stuck" on using a combo box, but it was the best option I
could find in my Access book.
Many Thanks,
Amy
