HI,
I am using Access 2002. I have a combobox in a form that allows one to
find a record in the form by selecting a value from a list.
The combox list is generated from a table called "Wafer Info". The
field is called "Wafer Name" and the format property is text. The
field in the table carries an input mask. It is
"NM-"00"W#"00"(CCF"000")" I put in the input max into the input mask
property of the combox box as well.
When I click on the drop down list, I just see a list of numbers
0000000 instead of NM00W00CCF000. However, when I click 0000000, it
changes the display in teh combo box to the correct label of
NM00W00CCF000, but only does so after I click it. This will be
confusing to my users. They need to see the list with the input mask
applied; they will not be able to easily deduce that 0000000 is
NM00W00CCF000.
Thank you for your help!
