Is there a limit to the number of combo boxes one can have on a form? I have
a form with 60. After clicking on several, I get message "Unable to open
anymore databases." The combo box list will be blank. I suspect that there
is a limit to how many combo boxes based on individual SQL statements can be
used, but can't find a definitive statement about this. The SQL statements
are apparently run and remain open while the form is open.
If I can't have 60, how can I work around this limitation? I suppose
breaking my form into several forms would work. Can I open and close each
combo box SQL statement as I access each box in succession. I did try to
make one query work for all with lists limited by which combo box had the
focus or was entered, but this did not seem to work. It appears that all
combo boxes have their list run upon opening the form. Also I could not
reference the name of the combo box in the query to populate it.
Any help?
