Microsoft Office for Developers > Access for Developers Question 0 Sign in to vote Error 2176, "The setting for this property is too long." This error occurs in Access 2003 when I try to use the AddItem method of a combobox. The item string is only 33 chars long. Is there a size limitation on list items in a combobox or is this a bogus error? Monday, February 14, 2011 6:53 PM Reply | Quote Answers 0 Sign in to vote Thanks all. My problem was in the data. There was punctuation within the data that was throwing it off.

The error refers to the total length of the RowSource field, which is the concatenation of all the entries. There is a size limit to it, but I'm afraid I don't remember what it is.Doug Steele, Microsoft Access MVP http://www.AccessMVP.com/djsteele (no e-mails, please!)

It has another field called ID which is a text field. It has http://www.dbforums.com/showthread.php?1700838-VBA-Access-Run-Time-Error-2176-The-setting-for-this-propert-is-too-long values 1,2,3..etc. I have an Image holder called ImageBox1 in an Access form. When a button is clicked I want to display the image stored in the table in the image holder on the form. I executed a query and stored the results in a recordset. Then I set the picture property to the retrieved image. My code was: Dim myConnection1 As ADODB.Connection Dim myRecordSet1 As New ADODB.Recordset Set myConnection1 = CurrentProject.AccessConnection Set myRecordSet1.ActiveConnection = myConnection1 myRecordSet1.Open "SELECT * FROM DemoImageT WHERE ID = '1'" If IsNull(myRecordSet1.Fields(1)) = False Then MsgBox ("Image present") ImageBox1.Visible = True ImageBox1.Picture = myRecordSet1.Fields(1) Else MsgBox ("No image") End If I get the message box Image present. But then I get: run time error 2176- The setting for this property is too long. The error occurs in the line: Me.ImageBox1.Picture=myRecordSet1.Fields(1) Is there something wrong with the code? Is there any other way to retrieve images stored in an Access database using VBA and display it on a form? If the above method is correct, what might be wrong?
