My database stopped working

Acc

Hi there

I created a database that was working perfectly. it printed reports, and did
searches, and all was fine. then a few days later i opened it, and my
"combo boxes" that did my searches no longer work?

i re-created the database from scratch again, and the same thing keeps
happening, one minute my search boxes "combo boxes" work, the next they just
dont?
any suggestions?

thank u

Is the form's allow edits property set to yes? Is the combo box's locked
property set to no? Is the form's data entry property set to no?

Hi Chris

Yes, I have checked all the property settings which you have mentioned and
form's allow edits property is set to yes, combo box's locked property is
set to no, and forms data entry property is set to no....

Do you have a filter applied to the form? Does the form only open with a
subset of the data - in other words, a group of records, but not *all* of
them you might search for?

No, there are no filters applied to the form. the form is set to open in
"add mode" if that helps. but there are definatley no filters.
