Cont Form with Combo Boxes

[jkfeagle]

I have a continous form that once the combo box filters are selected, shows the applicable records. Included in records, I've put a bound combo box that allows the user to fill in that particular field. This works with the first record but when you attempt to select the other records, all the combo boxes disappear. What am I doing wrong here??

Thanks Pat. Once again you come to the rescue. I'll give it a go and see if I can get it to work.

OK. Did as you said in your example database/posting and once again, it works fine for the first record only. Try to click on any of the other combos in the continuous form and they all disappear. Any ideas on what I might have missed?

Just to clarify something here. When I say that the combo box disappears, I mean literally, the whole control disappears, not just the data. With the next design, the text boxes remain and the arrows (the part of the combo that is seen) all disappear!

Right. And that's what I did but I still have the disappearing combo boxes????

I'm fairly certain it is but how do you check the Z order?

Pat,

Checked the Z order and the text box is definitely on top. The thing that doesn't make sense is when you click on either a combo arrow (the box portion is obviously hidden) or the overlaying text box OTHER THAN THE FIRST ONE, ALL the combo boxes disappear. Any ideas?

I don't know if this has any bearing on things but it might illuminate the problem. The criteria information for the underlying query is selected with text boxes (pop-up calendar driven) and combo boxes in the form header. The records are updated through a command button that simply requeries the info once the different filtering info is selected.
