RE: Combo box locked?



Sorry DanJ, coming back to my problem again.
I guess my Access isn't very stable at the moment, and it's very irritating...

I was just trying to play around with these form's properties (AllowFilters,
AllowEdits, AllowDeletions, AllowAdditions) to see how each one effects the
combo box functionality. But then regardless of any or all of the above
properties is set to Yes or No, the combo boxes work OK so long as I switch
to DesignView first, then switch back to FormView. Otherwise, they don't work
even if all of the above properties are set to Yes.

Is this something wrong with my database or Access 2002 itself?

Regards,
Sam
