Hi all...

I am new in Access and I have a small problem...
I put a ComboBox and when I click down on the ComboBox it shows a line in the middle of the list and if the text is longer than the middle is cut out...

I know that this is a small problem, but i need some help

this is how it looks like
 
check your column count property. Looks like it is two and I think you want 1.
 
Sometimes you want to return values for multiple columns but only want to show one column. You can use column widths property and set to 0.

example
column count: 2
column widths: 0;1"
bound column: 1

In the above I show the second column only, but I actually return the value of the first column because that is the bound column.
