Combo Box Text Invissible

[deaf1mass]

I have built a DB for a friend of mine using 2007; however, she only has 2003
so I converted it. Now using 2003, my combo boxes aren't working correctly.
In 1 only the first column's text is vissible in the drop down. The second
column is displayed but the text is invissible. In my second combo box, all
the text in both drop down columns are invissible. I can only read the text
after I make a section from the drop down. What am I doing wrong? Many thanks!

This *may* be caused by a bug in SP3 for Access 2003. If so, there's a
hotfix for it. If your friend has that service pack installed, and hasn't
applied this hotfix:

.... then I suggest applying it. HOWEVER: Do not apply the hotfix unless
Access 2003 SP3 is installed.
