Windows 11 and Access Combo Box Issue

106 New Member
Was curious if anyone else was having this same issue or not....

I was just Up/Down graded to windows 11 and now my access combo boxes are not acting right. With win 10 I could start typing something in the combo box on a form and it would auto complete. Now in windows 11 it starts to do it but stops after a couple of characters being typed in. It seems to do this when there are a lot of items to pick from in the combo box.

If you had this issue, what did you do to fix it?

Hi DJ.

I can't be much help with this issue directly, but I hope you manage to find some help. I've avoided the up/downgrade myself as I'm not a big fan of re-learning how my computer works every time someone at Microsoft gets bored with their experience.

That said, I see there's enough clear information here for someone with the relevant experience to offer their help. I would add one tip perhaps, and that would be to post a picture of your system status as shown by isladogs' article Access/Windows/Office365 Version Checker. This is a relatively new article and can prove enormously helpful whenever versions become an issue.

I have a combo box where users select the customer name and can either go to the customer's info or open a list of the customer's orders. The RowSource for the combo box was a simple pass-through query: SELECT DISTINCT , , ,City, Region FROM Customers ORDER BY Customers.; This was working fine until a couple of weeks ago. Now whenever someone has the form open, this statement locks the entire Customers table.

I am trying to obtain more debugging information for an issue I reported (ref. Bug #37185 <http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=37185&edit=2>). Unfortunately, I do not have access to the now-ancient Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0, which is why I cannot use the pre-built debug sysbol files for debugging. So it appears I must build PHP.

Hi, I have used Access Combo boxes for years. Recently when I type in the combo box and a value loads Access is not overwriting the value if I keep typing. I am using both Access 2010 and 2013. Example: one of the value on the list is "I don't know" the next value is "Interest". When I type "I" the "I don't know" value loads. When I go to type the "nt" to pull up "Interest" the entry becomes "Int don't know". I thought this was...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
