dropdown listbox control problem

D

drallimd

I am running MSAccess 2002 on a home XP system. When I try to add a "dropdown listbox" control to a form it pops up an information widow that informs me that "The constant you have entered for the control type is invalid." If I boink the "Help" button, I get a blank window and if I boink the OK button, I get a window informing me that "MS Office Access has encountered a problem and needs to close. etc." This is the only control that acts this way. Can anyone help me out with this?
