combo box error

B

Barbara

I get a "Field Too Small" error when i inadvertantly put
a value into the combo box. The value entered is not in
the list but I do have an event procedure to trap for
this "not in list" error. It seems that even before the
event takes control, Access gives me the "field too
small" error.

I have also experienced this when put a letter in a
numeric field.

Any suggestion.
