Combo Box Row Source

[carl]

I have a combo box on a form and I have created a view for
its row source. The view shows all 32,000 records
consisting of two fields. However I have not been able to
configure the combo box to show all of the records from
the view that I have set as its row source.
The Combo Box seems to only display 10,000 records and I
am not been able to find some of the values listed in the
view????
I have not seen any documentation on this. Any help would
be appreciated.

You might look at
Tools->Options->Advanced->Default MaxRecords.
which may be set to 10000,
thus limiting the intial downloading of records to 10000.

Many developers would look for a way other than a combo-box for dealing
with the display of 32000 records?

If you're SEARCHING for a particular name, use a Ctrl-F. If you're
making a NEW RECORD, why would you limit entry of a last name to the 32,000
already in the database? This seems like another example of someone using
the entirely wrong strategy to do something. What are you trying to do,
generally?
