[AccessD] Query reference to screen control

I've seen both 2000 and 2002 do something like this when they had a
flakey reference.  Nothing was shown as missing in the references, but
calls to a particular library failed until the reference was reset and
some comboboxes with form references in the query  criteria came up
empty.

	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?
