Combo Boxes Problem

D

Debra Ann

MS Access 2003:

I have a bunch of combo boxes on a form that are looking at different
tables. My problem is the user can only click on the dropdowndropdown and
select and item (even though I have limit to list set to no). I would like
them to be able to type in, for example, 051. When I try to start typing, I
get as far as the 0 and it choose the first thing on the list, 001. What am
I doing wrong?

Thanks,

Debra Ann

You can just continue typing. 0 will start with 001, then enter the file and
it will start with 050, then 051. Or, you and set the combo's autoexpand
property to No and you will see no change until you navigate away from the
control.
