Don,

You have me confused!  Is this combo box referring to itself or some
other combo box or something else?  I cannot tell since you only show
one name but say you have two controls.  Please try to be a little more
explicit.

Subject: [AccessD] Query reference to screen control

I have this odd occurrance in A2K. I have a combo that has criteria
referencing two screen controls, like this
[forms]![frmtestcases]![cmbproject]. Many times (but not always) it
returns nothing when I click it. Then if I go into the grid for the
underlying query and make it 
=[forms]![frmtestcases]![cmbproject] it works, however it does not keep
the equal sign, it discards it - works for a while then craps out. What
gives?? Just another wierd Accessism?
