auto-complete in dropdown

A

A.L.

I have a combobox (unbound control) in main (unbound) form which looks
up "categories", then the items are displayed in a subform based on a
sorted query. I would like auto-complete to work when a user types in
the category field. This works when I first create the control, but
after the first time I close access and re-open it, the auto-complete
no longer functions. Limit to list is "yes"; auto-expand is "yes".

At one time in trying another method, I got an error that the first
visible colum was not equal to the bound column, which may or may not
be the problem??

I am not very experienced, so some detail on how to create the
necessary control/properties would be helpful. Thank you.

A.
