I have 2 select objects that are now doing strange things. There should be 3 select objects to record severity values see below.

The 1st was working correctly but the second and third did not hold the input values. I tried to amend the properties to no avail. I deleted the objects and re-entered them. They did not appear in the correct position on the form but appeared on the top of the tab area as just the downarrow. see below. I subsequently realised they appear at the top of each tab which accesses the main table. They do not appear on tabs which are subforms to link data from other files.

I can click on the oblects with middle button and the properties display as required. It does not matter what value I choose for top or left they do not move.

If I look at the objects for the form they appear to be listed properly. They dissapear from the obj list if deleted.

Finally if I choose arrange objects they do not appear on screen or in the list. I have checked all tabs.

Is there really a space before the underscore?

Code: Select all

severitypre _con3

Thanks Kevin

I have been looking at this 50 times and didn't otice the space. Removed space in database table, re-entered the objects and now working fine.
