I have a very simple form in Access 2013. I am trying to add to listbox values. I can do this for a bit and then I get an error message: "MA Not Able to Update List Values". I am the only user for this database. I have backed up, Debugged, Compact/Repaired, Imported Objects into a new database. Still get this error. I am not a programmer, so I don't use any VBA commands. This is an intermittent error and its driving me crazy. Anyone come across this and have a solution? Thanks.

How are you adding the items to the List Box?
Are these items from a table or query, or are they a value list?

I am working on a form that contains many fields. I am adding additional items to a list that was already in place via "Edit List Items" from a right-click on the field, which brings up a dropdown menu. I also tried to access the value items via the Property Sheet/data tab. The items are values that I am adding to a list. I am experiencing this on several different fields intermittently. Sometimes I can add a few successfully, then when I go back to add another I get the error message. The entire error message refers to the form or field possibly being locked, read-only, or someone else is using the database. None of these are actually true.
