Listbox scroll bar problems

[Nick via AccessMonster.com]

Hello,

I'm having a problem with the vertical scroll bar in a listbox on one of my
forms.

The listbox is bound to a table with more records than fit on one page, so
the scroll bar appears. The problem is that the list box does not "see" the
scroll bar there; any attemps to click on the scroll bar just select the list
item sitting behind the bar.

The only way I can get the scroll bar to work (so far) is by a series of
erratic clicks around the form; I can't even make the same clicking sequence
fix the scroll bar twice in a row.

I've tried manually scrolling to the end of the list to see if the scroll
bars would "populate" then, but no luck.

For obvious reasons, I don't want to have to tell my end users... "Yeah, just
click around alot, then this will work..." What am I missing? I haven't
been able to find any other problems like this, so I know there has to be an
obvious answer. Any help would be appreciated.

TIA,
Nick

Sometimes it's best to just delete the offending control and start from
scratch. It'd probably take less time to throw a new listbox on the
form that it did to post this question.

Thanks for the tip... every now and then I need a "do this, dummy" suggestion
when I stray off the path <g>.

Works fine now, so again thanks.
