Access 97 database fields turn black on Windows 2000 PC

we had an Access97 Database created for us and it was mainly used on Windows
98 workstations.
I upgraded some computers to windows 2000 and now when they use that
database, the fields turn black after they edit them.

I think there is something in the code that has to be changed.
Has anyone else seen this problem???

Thanks,
Greg

Not sure what you meant by turning black???

Do you mean "reverse video" where the background of selected text is black
and the characters are white?

if you select a name from the drop-down list, it shows up and stays on that
selected field. However when you move on to the next field, the previous one
that you had just chosen turns completely black. You cant even see the text.
This only happens on Windows 2000 PCs. The database only works properly on
Windows 98. Ever here of this problem?? I was told that it has to do
something with the code.

Mo, I haven't heard / seen this problem. If it has anything to do with the
code, check the code in the Form Module for anything that set the values for
the "ForeColor" or "BackColor" Property of the ComboBox.
