when I add a new record on the form via VBA - and then go to the combo box
control, the control tip shows properly, but the cursor is not blinking. can
not type anything into the box. when I click on the box, all is ok.

any ideas as to what is wrong? works fine in access 2003.

thx

Make sure that you have at least the first 2 service packs in Access 2007.
There was a combo box dropdown problem that I think was fixed in SP2. If you
still have the problem, try SP3.
