Combo Box Issue

I have made one of my fields in a subform a combo box. When I open the form
in form view, everything looks ok, but when I open the drop-down arrow and
make a selection, an error window immediately opens. This is the message:

You can't assign a value to this object.
*The object may be a control on a read-only form.
*The object may be on a form that is open in Design view.
*The value may be too large for this field.

I can hit the Return key and move on to the next field and the selected data
stays in the field. Can anyone help in resolving this error?

Thanks in advance!
 
Are you sure you have the master-child fields set for the subform? Is the
combo one of the fields in the subform?
