Combo Boxes Help

[Guest]

I am new to this, so please bare with me,

I have a combo box that contains barcodes (ex.9257263211), when you go to
enter an item and press 9 it automatically enters the first item, then when
you press 2 it gives me an error "tje text you entered is not an item on the
list", is you push the down arrow the item is there. What setting do I need
to change to stop this?

That sounds strange, it should work.

First thing always to do is Compile your database.
- Open a code window soemwhere
- do Debug->Compile & Save all Modules
that might just work

If not, your combo box may be corrupted but that's easy to fix.
- delete the combo box
- make sure the Toolbox Wizard button (Stars & Wand) is clicked
- add the combo again

Thanks,

the compile debug - did not work. But deleting it did! Weird.
