Question Combo Box Troubles

[Jas B]

Hi,

I'm creating a simple database to document our supplier's contact information, addresses etc. However, when I create a combo box on the form and try to enter a record not on the list it gives the message "The Text You Entered Isn't an Item in the List".

Can anyone offer some assistance on solving this problem?

Regards, Jas

In the PROPERTIES (for the combo box) LIMIT TO LIST put NO, (instead of YES).

The sample here demonstrates a different approach.

Had to edit the ColumnWidth first, but changing the Limit To List option worked.

Many thanks for your time and assistance Mstef and John Big Booty.
