Michel, I hunted similar problem last week (on one my form in some circumstances I get this message for a combo) and eventually plain Thisform.Combo.Rowsource="" (before recollection records into a cursor) solved it, i.e. I guess that it's reasonable to use cursor as Rowsource and issue this propgrammatically.
