Dave

I have a combobox on a continuous form that uses the following code to
open it:

me.cboEmployeeNumber.dropdown

It is attached to the OnDirty event. I developed in Access 2002 (XP),
but still have it using an Access 2000 file format (no conversion was
made). It works great in Access 2002 running on XP, but doesn't in
Access 2000 running on Windows 2000 (which many users still use).

Is it possible that Access 2000 does not recognize the OnDirty event,
and if not, is there a workaround? I don't want the combobox to open
until someone starts changing the value. If attached to the OnFocus
event, it will open the combobox even if the users is not intending on
changing it's value.

Thanks,

Dave
 
Dave,

Try moving that code to the KeyDown Event. That event is
only triggered when when a user starts to type.

Also their is the On Dirty Event in A2K. So it another
issue that is causing it.
