When I click on the .mdb file to open my application, I get the following error:

Run-time error "2176": The setting for this property is too long. You can enter either up to 255 or 2,048 characters for this property, depending on the data type.

When I click Debug, the following line of code is highlighted:

cboTableList.RowSource = Mid$(strTblPreLst, 2)

I realize this line is probably useless out of context but it is part of the problem. Supposedly, there have been no changes to this database in a couple of years. It just stopped working yesterday suddenly. Any help is greatly appreciated. X-)
 
Sounds like the string you are passing as the RowSource property is too long.
