    drop down issues

    i have xp and access 2003



    If I move my project from my laptop to my desk top one of the 3 drop down boxes dose not work correctly. I click the down arrow and all I get in an empty list box. The data is in the box but you can’t see it. It’s like the font color is set to match the box color. If I try it on a different desktop it works fine. I think it a problem on my desktop.

    Do you have something in the Format property of the TABLE for this field? If so then remove it. Has SP3 been applied without also applying the HotFix?
