Hello, vampyr07au.
I hope you will find the following information helpful.
Yes, there is a problem with the design of the forms that is causing them to act differently than expected.
In the Input Details screens, the Year, Genre, and Rating fields are all ListBox controls. ListBox controls normally require the user to actually click on the chosen item in the field to select and highlight the item before the application can process the data. If you click on the up or down arrows, and don't actually click inside the field to highlight it, it won't work.
I believe that using ListBox controls that only show one item at a time, like they do in this application, is not the best way to present this type of data. I think it would be more user-friendly to make the Genre and Rating fields ComboBox controls, like the Actor fields, and make the Year field an ordinary TextBox.
