Question : adding items to combo boxes on form

Hello,
i attached code and database example-
the code i use to add items to combo boxes on form.
this database - because I believe may have constructed inaccurately- is not letting me add items to second two combo boxes- is there a way I can change code to let me add items like the first combo box-
if you enter a new name in first combo box - you will see how works-
the second two combo boxes give me errors-
i am hoping since real database is large- i can make the second two combo boxes work without having to redo tables and form
thank you

Answer : adding items to combo boxes on form

I have no problems with second field - value is added.
You should set "Limit to list" to Yes for third field.
