I created a form that contained a drop down menu that a user could
select. I made some changes, trying to resolve another issue and now I
am unable to select a value from the drop down. I can see all the
values in the drop down but am unable to select them. If I use the
record selectors I can cycle through. Anybody have a clue as to how to
get it back to where I can select the record from the drop down?

Did you set AllowEdits to No?
 
And what was the task performed by the dropdown box?

The drop down list is used to select a company. I then have a button
that when clicked will pull up a report on that particular company.

Well that is the problem. If the form doesn't allow edits then you cannot make
a selection in the ComboBox. You might think AllowEdits only affects bound
controls, but it locks unbound ones too.

I have set AllowEdits to yes and I still have the same problem.
