Form and lost drop down list

K

katiet.

I am a new using Access 2007.
I am having trouble with a form I set up. The drop down options are not
appearing.
They appear on my table and on my query that the form is looking to. Is
there some option I need to change to make the drop down lists be available.

I would appreciate your help. Thanks.

katiet,

Are you refering to combo boxes? Do they have a RwoSource? In other words,
have you set them up? Also, it sounds like you are using lookup fields in
your table, not a good thing and here's why...

You really want to store those values in tables and then use them as the
RowSource of your cobo boxes.
