I am trying to create a drop-down list box in a volunteer
records form. The box would offer "Mr., Mrs., Dr., Rev.,
etc."
I have the "drop-down list box" icon in the Toolbox.
When I click on it, with the form open in Design View, I
get the following error message:
"The constant you entered for control type is
invalid." At which point I get "MS Access has encountered
a problem and needs to close."
To my knowledge I have not entered any constant, all
I've done is click on the icon.
I am using MS Access 2002 with WinXP. Any help will be
appreciated.
Thanks,
Fred
 
does this happen on *any* database or just the one you are working with?

ie: if it happens all the time you might need to re-install Access
