Hi Robin, >> Gotta say I find this one a little strange. I've never seen a function in a rowsourcetype before, didn't know you could do it.
Is there any chance you could post a copy of the app so we can take a look at it? >> Bear in mind I am using ACCESS 97. If you go into the Developer Solutions database select Sample Forms and from the Sample Forms select AddAllToList click the design view button select the Forms tab and select the form AddAllToList and open in Design view right click on the unbound combo box and select properties and look at Data you will see Row Source Type is AddAllToList which is a function name. Go back to the Developer Solutions screen (I just restarted it) select Sample Forms and from the Sample Forms double click on AddAllToList. This fires up the form with associated help screens. Select Adding "All" to a List Go down to Step By Step point 1 and click on AddAllToList function. I don't know how to get to this function from the AddAllToList form. There are other ways (possibly easier) to do what I want to do, but I have selected this option because I want to learn Access Basic. I am a programmer from "the old days" and I am finding Access Basic incredibly exciting.
