If you load a listbox or combo box in code instead of using a control, how come it takes sooooo long? I have 3000 records and even using the code with a recordcount instead of eof, it takes forever. Using a data control(DAO) pops right up. Any suggestions?

Also, using MIDI child forms treats the forms differently when hiding and showing (As far as sometimes the activate event don't work when re-showing). Is MIDI child forms the best route in a programming project? Just curious.
