Combo Box Missing from Report

[TastyWheat]

I've made a report and I wanted to add filtering options with combo boxes but the drop-down button on every box is invisible. I can click on the combo box and see the blinking text cursor, but I don't have the button or any kind of drop-down list.

Are you saying that you have a combo box on the report that you want to be able to edit the data within?

If yes, AFAIK, report are read only and you can not edit the data on a report using controls on the report.

On a different report I was able to filter the records with command buttons [on the report] so I assumed combo boxes would work the same way.

I dont believe that you can put comboboxes on reports. They are used for forms mostly.

That is also interesting that you have gotten it to work with a command button. I didnt think that was possible
