validation from combo box

I created a combo box in a form that draws its choices
from a list of records in a table field. It works fine,
but I need to be able to restrict the entry to only those
values. I know a list box restricts values this way but
my list is too long to fit on my form. Any suggestions on
how to create this validation? (I tried messing with the
validation rule for the field and learned only that I
don't know that I'm doing.)

thanks as always,

Spence,

In form design view, select the combo box, display
Properties, go to tab Data and change the Limit to list
value to Yes... that's all you need!
