Mazlan,

That error is usually related to a list or combo that has a rwosourcetype of Fields and the rowsource is specified incorrectly. The most coommon error in the rowsource is using the alias on all the field names. For example if I want a list populated by Field1, Field2, and Field3 of the cursor MyTable, the rowsource would be;

MyTable.Field1, Field2, Field3

and not;

MyTable.Field1, MyTable.Field2, MyTable.Field3

the second one causes the field clause not found error.

So in conclusion go into your form class and checl out the lists and combos to be sure the rowsource is specified correctly.
