Trying to add an item to an already established combo box list. I can't
figure out how to change the list once it's there. I can remove it and
rebuild a new one... but, for instance, if I have a drop down box for someone
to choose their "State ID" from... and when I set it up, I missed one and
need to add it to the list later... how do I do that?
 
If your list is going to change, you should be using a table or query as the
row source. I don't recall ever using a Value List.
 
A table is more convenient than a value list for lists that change, as well
as making the list more transparent. To change a value list, edit the combo
box' Row Source property (click View, Properties from form design view).
