Run-time error 2176

Hi,
I am populating a combo box with rowsourcetype "Value List" with a record set of invoice numbers.
While this has worked ok for some time, this form has started generating the error "Run-time error 2076 The setting for this property is too long".
I think it's something to do with how many records I'm trying to put in the list (10 characters but >2000 records).

Please advise.

Thanks
Paul

Sorry error code is 2176 not 2076

RE: Run-time error 2176

Hi Paul

Thank you for your question

Can you clarify the following for me please

1. Which line of code is generating the error?
2. Are you attempting to write the contents of the combo box to a variable?

Thanks

Stephen
