    Unwanted List Box appearing when trying to edit field in continuous subform

    The subject line says it all



    I have a subform in continuous form mode in which I'm trying to edit specific text box fields.

    On entering the field (using mouse) I get a list box symbol appearing at the right hand end of the field.

    I know I have prevented it happening before but after several hours grind can't appear to stop it happening know.

    Any suggestions please

    Regards

    Terry Lawson

    Are you talking about the scroll bars? Set the property to None.

    or have you set the field in the underlying table as a lookup using a listbox?

    Many thanks for prompt replies, it was the scroll bars that needed setting to none.

    Problem solved, I have to say how very useful this forum is to a self taught amateur!

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
