Combo Box Field Not Displaying Upload Images   Link   Email  
Andrew Hall 
I am trying to create a Combo Box on my Customer Form. The Combo Box is basically the same as the "Lead Source" combo box in Expert Level 3 Video 1 example.

My Problem is, When storing the selected value from my combo box in my database...when I go to the dropdown for "Store Than Value in This Field:" MY FIELD ISN'T THERE!!

Almost all the other fields on my Customer Table Exist. However,the one I need will not show up.

Any experience with this?

What's the data type of the field you're trying to save the value in? You can't save to a calculated field or an Autonumber.
Andrew Hall 
Well..I just ended up deleting a bunch of fields, and starting from scratch, more or less...and it ended up working.  To answer your question, the data type was Number, not AutoNumber.  I can't for the life of me figure out what was happening.  The good news is, after going backwards a bunch, everything worked out.  It had to be something set up weird from the get go.

You're not lying about getting it right the first time.

Glad you got it working. Yeah, sometimes weird stuff happens. :)
