>Hello Cetin,

Pete,
If this message is accurate then the problem is that you have confused ControlSource with RowSource. ControlSource is the item that will be updated by the combo, RowSouce is the item that will be used to populate the combo's list.
It is
RowSource that needs to be Alias.Field,Field2,Field3.
