    Allow user to dynamically choose font for each line...

    I have a field called cmbFonts & I would like to populate it with the font values that are valid for the given PC. It will show up on a form as a combo box & the users can then choose the font they would like stored with the given record. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks!

    You've all sent me in searching in the right direction - when I turn off "Correct TWo INitial CApitals", the problem doesn't occur. I'd like to keep it turned on, but if I can't figure out how to stop it from inserting, I'll have to leave it off.....

    Caps Lock causing insert in combo box

    I have many different Access databases on my laptop, & the problem seems to be happening in ALL of them, for EVERY combo box that I've tried.
