Combo Boxes go transparent when they loose focus
Some of my combo boxes go transparent when they loose focus or if a sub form
is opened. Does anyone know what causes this and how to fix it?

Combo Boxes go transparent when they loose focus
From Allen Browne's article on 2007 bugs, which I think addresses your
problem: "A combo may display as transparent when focus leaves it. Workaround: set the AlternateBackColor property of the the (Detail?) Section to something other than "No Color", e.g. #80000027." -- There's ALWAYS more than one way to skin a cat!

Setting this property to a colour didn't seem to work for me however,
deselecting No Color by choosing one of the other items from the drop down list did work. "JamesJ" wrote: If you mean that the combo box's BackStyle becomes transparent In Access 2007?
