Hi guys.
If you have a form that has the property "pop up" ON and there is a combobox in that form, that you can edit its list by pressing the *ghost pencil* at the bottom of the list, a weird BUG happens:
If you press the pencil button, the edit list dialog opens, but (especially if you haven't move your mouse) the *ghost pencil* STAYS lighted and CLICKABLE in the same position!
If you click it again (the obvious (?) thing to do especially if you are not the developer (!)) and then try to click the dialog box, Access 2007 HANGS, and it prompts you to close it. :-(
This something like the 30th (repeatable) bug I encountered, and this the 1st db I m developing.
Anyway I had a question for dealing with it (for my db), but in then mean time I redesigned the from so I don't have to use the "pop up" property. ;-)
So this post It started as a question but it became just a report for a bug.
