OK. I have a form that contains a list box. The row source type is 3 - SQL statement and the row source contains the select statement I want to use to populate the list box. The first run it's OK. The problem is when data changes and I run the listbox.requery method it does not reload the data in the listbox. I am actually building the select statement in a var and placing it in the row source. This method works great for grids, which I am about to change to from my listbox, allowing programatically created select statements to populate a grid, but I just can't get the list box to reload the data. I am going to use a grid in place of the list box now but it still bugs me that I couldn't get the listbox to do what I wanted. Any ideas?
