Hm. Scary. I hope it _is_ fixed. FWIW, I'm on NT WS 4 also (w/ sp3). And haven't had anymore trouble with item tips = .f. All my combos rely on SQL Select so I'd hate to have to change :-(

>My ItemTips property was set to .F. But I changed the row source from SQLSelect to Fields and handle the requery through code. This appears to have made the problem go away. I say 'appears' because I was not able to consistently create the problem on my stand alone workstation. I'm running NTWS 4.0. But the error would occur on the clients network every time. They are running Windows 95 and Novell Network.
