I have a form which contains a sub-form. The form is used for data
entry. I want to use a drop down list for one of the fields in the
sub-form. The drop down list takes data from another table not related
to the form or sub-form. I tried the following steps, but the drop down
list is never populated:

1. Change the field control to an drop down box
2. Set the drop-down property of the control to yes
3. Set the Type of List Contents property to SQL
4. Set the List Content property to "SELECT "player_ID", "last_name"
FROM players"

These steps worked for three other controls on this form, so why not
here? 

Is there something that prevents a sub-form control from using sql to
get its table contents?

Is there a log file somewhere that contains information that might help
me diagnose this problem?

I am using the latest base/openoffice from the OO web site - 2.4.0 with
mysql as the database engine and JDBC.

Thanks!

Mark
