Row source values not appearing in Form

[pmac]

Alright here is my problem. I have a combo box and have value list as my row source type(I know, not the best option, I didn't design it). So my row source is a list of over 20 options. When I try to add another row source value, it does not appear on the form. Is there any way possible for me to get this to work? I understand that creating a table and using that might be my best option for my row sources, but I was just wondering if there was any way around this problem...

You'll have to copy the value list to the combo box's row source property.

hmmm.. I have the value list selected in properties as Row Source Type, and the row source is my list of values separated by a semicolon. I'm not really sure what you mean by copy the value list to row source properties?

btw I'm using access 2007

So you added this value to the row source of the combo box on the form? The way it sounded is that you had a lookup field set at table level and added the value there but not on the form.

yes I added the desired value to the row source property. I have my form display an empty combo box and when its clicked, all the values from the row source property should be displayed. However, when I added two new ones the other day, they do not show up like the rest of the values.

You said you didn't design it -- so is it possible that there is some other code that is altering the Value List? I have Acc2003 and just tried a combo with a value list. Opened the form, and even under properties added values to the list, and they show up. Close form save change and reopen and everything is fine. So I'm thinking that maybe there is code that is resetting/assigning the Value list...but maybe not????

Yeah I'm searching through some code but not finding anything. I can make this work on my master database by selecting Allow Value list edits: Yes, but the client db's don't seem to update.
