See PRB: DisplayValue of ComboBox is Truncated in a Grid mskb #156771.
The bottom line, set the InputMask of the Column to something like

= REPLICATE("X", 30)

>I am using a grid with recordsource as a child and a combobox data as the linkmaster. In the combobox only the first letter of each will show records in the grid with the begining of the letter from the combobox. How could I show again all the records in the grid ? What code shall I put in the combobox to show all records in the grid?
