Combo Box Problem

[RICHARD BROMBERG]

I have a table (tblPhone) with text fields FULL, LAST, PHONE,

I also have a combo box (cmboFull) .
The row source for cmboFull is SELECT DISTINCT [FULL] FROM tblPhone;

Here's the code for the combo box

Private Sub cmboFull_AfterU pdate()
' Find the record that matches the control.
Dim rs As Object
Set rs = Me.Recordset.Cl one
rs.FindFirst "[Full] = '" & Me![cmboFull] & "'"
Me.Bookmark = rs.Bookmark
This combo box populates ok but when I click on any item in the combo box I
get the following error on the "Set rs = Me.Recordset.Cl one" statement.
Run time error '91'
Object variable or Withblock variable not set.

I used similar code in another program and it worked fine so I am puzzled
why it fails here.

Any ideas

The overall objective is to present a combo box containing the data in the
FULL field and
then set a couple of text boxes with the LAST and FULL fields in the
selected record.

Try without the 2nd dot, i.e.:
Set rs = Me.RecordsetClo ne

There are several other things that could go wrong with that code, including
reference priorities, the need to test NoMatch, and weird messages if the
record cannot be saved to activate the move (e.g. "Cannot Update without
Edit first".) For an example of a FindFirst that takes care of these issues,

I changed the code, removing the 2nd dot as you suggested, but that
generated the following error:
"You entered an expression that has an invalid reference to the
RecordsetClone property"

What else could be causing it.

Is this a bound form, i.e. does it have something in its RecordSource
property?

If the source is an Access table (or a query or SQL statement that uses
Access tables), you may need to change the declaration of:
Dim rs As Object
to:
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
and make sure you have a reference to the DAO library. The reference is
present in all versions of Access except 2000 and 2002, so if you are stuck
on one of those versions, see:
