Dirk - answers below.

Row Source:
SELECT TblPartPrefix.PartPrefixID, TblPartPrefix.PartPrefix,
TblPartPrefix.[Prefix Description] FROM TblPartPrefix ORDER BY
TblPartPrefix.PartPrefix;

Bound Column:1
Control Source: PartPrefixID
Default Value: blank
Column Count: 3
column Widths: 0";0.5";2"
Format: blank

Thanks for looking into it!


Could you give me a few sample rows from TblPartPrefix? There aren't any
rows with the same PartPrefixID, are there? What type of data are
PartPrefixID and [Prefix Description]?
