Is there a way to remove the arrow and the outside box so the text will
display. I want to print the page out but i don't want it to show the
dropdown arrow.

I have athe DropDown list being populate already. Tring to create a report
using a DAP.

The page is a invoice the will pull up the customers information using a
DropDown List.

Hi, Gregh.

Unfortunately, Access does not include much flexibility for printing a form.
Two options are either to duplicate the form as a report, or editing the
form to place an invisible textbox control under each combo box bound to the
same field, and making the combo boxes invisible and the text boxes visible
in your command button event procedure code, e.g.:

Me!cboName.Visible = False
Me!txtName.Visible = True

.....Print form here....

Me!cboName.Visible = True
Me!txtName.Visible = False

Hope that helps.

I can see how that would work on a normal form how would that work in a Data
Access page?

Thanks

Sorry, Greg; didn't realize what you meant by DAP. I haven't used them,
unfortunately, so I can't help you.

Good luck.
