In a shared (over a LAN) database, one combo box on one form comes up blank on some (not all) PC's. I cannot find what is causing this. Can anyone help? -- Dave
Unfortunately, it sounds like the errant PCs arre running Access 2003 and they've apparently been updated to the SP3 service pack, which is buggier than the Great Dismal Swamp! One of the most common bug reported involves comboboxes with disappearing data! The field(s) in the cbo, in the underlying table, have some kind of formatting in place. This is often the simple > used to force UpperCase. Remove any formatting from the fields and things should work short term, but the definitive solution is to install the hotfix for SP3. Here's a link to Allen Browne's site where you can find the latest news about these bugs, as well a link to the Hotfix: http://allenbrowne.com/bug-Access2003SP3.html -- There's ALWAYS more than one way to skin a cat!
