I have a form set up connected to a DB. First field is a combo box filled with names. I can choose a name and it appears in the box, but when i tab to the next text box it disappears or it gets erased. How can i resolve this problem?

Thanks in advance,

Thom
 
normally, a text is keep stay until it cleared. There's must be something somewhere in your code that gives the order to VB to clear the combo box.

Do search for "Combo1.Text =" or "Combo1.ListIndex = -1". This may not a solution but at least it's a start.
 
Maybe you could post some code so we could look at it for you. Mark

this is what i have:

combobox with a list of names in them
and several textboxes that must be filled out

what exactly happens is that when i tab to the next field the info in the the previous field disappears.....where could i find this in my code?
