Question : Filter one combo box based on value of another, filtered list blank issue

Hi

I have been trying to follow this tutorial in the link below:

The idea is to filter a combo box based on the value of another. The second filtered boxed is based on a query which refers to the value in the first combo box.

Using the Form 'frmDynamicComboBoxTest'. The first combo box source is the Faculty Table and the second combo box source is the Query 'qryFacSelect'.

I created this database on Access 2007 with compatibility for Access 2003 as that is what I use in work. I have an after update event code in the Faculty combo box which requeries the 2nd box and selects the default Faculty which matches the Faculty name in the Faculty table to that of the Department Table.

This works fine on my home pc with Access 2007 and even on my spare test pc which has Access 2003.

However when I tried to use it on my work pc the Department combo box only shows blanks although if you scroll through the blank values it does seem to be filtering to the correct criteria.

I checked the query while the form was open and the query appears to be filtering fine. My work pc has SP3 on it's Access setup.

When I first ran my db on my work pc I got the message 'Block unsafe expressions' to which I answered no. Was this incorrect and could it have a bearing on what is going wrong with my db?

I have attached a sample file and would be grateful if one of the experts could take a look and see what it is I have done wrong.

Thanks in advance for any help offered.
