Combo Box / Dropdown list
Does any know why this is occurring and is there a way around it.
I am loading a dropdown list with a simple list of items. When the number of
items in the list gets to 5042 the list doesn't appear to dropdown. If the
number of items in the list is 5041 everything seems to be fine. If the
number of items in the list is 5043 everything also seems to be fine except
that the dropdown list is only long enough to display 1 item. The farther
the number of items in the list gets away from 5042 the more "normal" the
dropdown list appears.
'here is a simple example with a listbox and a command button on 'form.
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim x As Integer
Screen.MousePointer = vbHourglass
Me.Combo1.Clear
For x = 1 To 5042
Me.Combo1.AddItem "ITEM # " & x
Next
Screen.MousePointer = vbDefault
End Sub
Thanks
