[AccessD] combo box Limit to List question

Sorry. I misunderstood the problem. But why would you not want it set to
YES and then program around it?

Stuart -- that is exactly what I'm talking about. I'm glad someone else
is seeing the same behavior. 

I can understand the limitation, I just think it's something that they
could clearly offer a workaround for.

You must have a different MS Access to me then :-)

 Whenever I do that, the LimitToList is set automagically to Yes. When I
try to change it back to No, I get a very clearly explained error
message:

"Microsoft Access can't set the LimitToList property to No right now.
The first visible column which is determined by the ColumnWidths
property, isn't equal to the bound column. Adjust the ColumnWidths
property first, then set the LimitToList property"

AFAIR, it's been the same for every version of Access over the last 10
years up to and including A2K
