Error in Combo Control

Hello, I have an Access 97 application that is deployed on multiple Windows 98 and Windows 2000 machines.

Just recently we installed the application on several new 2000 machines and have seen a few issues.

One is for a certain combo control. The combo display two columns (First column is a number field and second is a description field). The users tab to this control and then type in a number to select a row. When they tab of the row they receive a error message that they have not selected a valid item and have to reselect the combo with the mouse before they can tab off.

Another text field uses the Format command and displays (### or ???) instead of the valid description.

I've gone and confirmed that these users have the correct dlls that I have references in my application. Does anyone know what other systems files might be causing these type of errors?

Thanks

Don

Hiya,

The textbox problem looks like the textbox can't display the data because of it's length, much like in Excel.

I've asked colleagues for help on this - hopefully you'll get a definitive before then.

Regards,

Darrylle
