NotInList

I have a combo box that I'm trying to use select Prospect from my table. If
the prospect isn't in the list I want to add them on the fly, but I'm having
troubles getting it to work correctly. I have the combo box's LimitToList
Property set to Yes, and the following code in the form's module.

The problem is that the routine will prompt me correctly if I want to create
the new records which it does fine, but then it loops and prompts me again.
When I click No, I get an error stating the item wasn't in the list, and then
another error that simply state Record Not Found.

Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong here.

Thank you

Mark
