This *may be* due to an incompatibility between the control source and the the bound data source. I've gotten that when I was selecting a .. lets say ... 50 character value and trying to store it to a 30 char value.....

It appears to select OK but shows blank....is that the symptom?

>Hi, were you able to fix the problem you had with using a combobox(dropdown list) in a grid? I have the exact same problem you had at the beginning of the thread and I wonder if you could share the recipe on you got it to work. Whenever I select a product from the list it flashes for about a milisecond and then disappears, giving me the blue background, although I'm able to get the information I need from it such as price and code value, but the description won't stay.
