How do i stop the default Access error message for NotInList to stop popping up? I have a custom error message that displays when you try to enter a value not in the list, and the default Access error message saying "The text you entered isn't an item in the list. Select an item from the list, or enter text that matches one of the listed items." comes up after i close my custom error message. How can i stop this from coming up?

Go to the properties for that particular combo box and select "no" in the "limit to list". ~Rob

If we expect the unexpected, does that make the unexpected... well, expected?
