Can you share a screenshot?

Is this when you pick any item?

Yes let me post pic. It happens no matter what I type or Pic from list

when i re create the combobox it works. as i type it begins populating names from the dropdown. When i close the program and re open, i type a name but nothing happens. when i hit enter i get this error. if  i choose from the dropdown i get same error.

Jennie is this something that has happened just recently or is it happening this way always?

How are you creating your combo box? Using the wizard or manually?
You may need to post some screenshots in design mode for us to see.

I would start out by totally closing out of all programs.  Then restart your computer.  Don't do a shut down but actually do a restart.

Have you gone through any of the items Troubleshooter?

i guess all issues started after the first time i finished the database, split and put backend on sharepoint. thats when errors started. this last file i basically re created from scratch to make sure i didnt copy errors after i pulled it back down from sharepoint.

that combobox had been fine though, its recent and i cant figure out why. i made a video of whats happening. am i aloud to post a link to that video?

You just added in a variable that wasn't mentioned before - moving to SharePoint.  I'm afraid I haven't worked with SP so can't be of any help there.

So if you download a fresh copy of one of the TechHelp Free Templates or make a new db of your own, can you recreate the same issue? That will tell us if it is in your current db or in access / your computer.
If you have another computer with access on it you could try it there as well.

You are allowed to upload screenshots, and that is fine because we can see them prior to approving them. Once approved they can't be changed.
  
The reason links are not allowed is multi-fold:  
       1. Virus prevention
       2. It prevents broken links in posts -- You might post it now but delete in 2 months from now.  
           Thus breaking the threads in the forum.
       3. Not saying you would, but it prevent people from posting advertising, p**n, etc.  Richard had instances
           where things looked fine initially then got switched out - hacked - whatever, with some nasty stuff and it
           just became easier to not allow most links.

Scott I restarted and then went back to a back up version from about a week prior and all is good.

Now that I have all the basic functions and its working well AGAIN, I need to attempt splitting the database and putting the tables in SharePoint. Ill go back and watch Richard's class first but I'm scared to death to mess it up :-/

The only way you can mess up is if you don't have good backups to fall back on.  Sure you may have 'unexpected occurrences' crop up after a change but if you BU regularly and keep several past BU files it is easier to recover.

Restoring a good BU is much easier than recreating a whole application.
