Text is blank (Invisable) on dropdown in form

C

I have an ACCESS 2003 form that was working just fine until last week. All of
a sudden, on of the drop down selections list is invisible (just like if the
font was white on white background). This only happens on the terminal
server. If the database is accessed from a workstation, the info in the
dropdown shows. You can click on the invisable selections and they will show
as the selection.

I have checked the color settings and the font is set to black with a white
background.

I am stumped due to the fact that the drop down shows on every computer
except the terminal server.( W2K Terminal Server SP 4, Office 2003 SP3)

You've diagnosed the problem! SP3 is EVIL! This problem is one of the most
