Hi! The combobox becomes slow when used to with a file containing a large no. of records and the general suggestion in this case is to use a textbox in combination with a grid control. However when entering data e.g. a product in to a order entry form the combo box is bound to order_detail.product_code field and displays / allows entry of the product_name. How can something similiar be achieved with a text and grid control, or what are the alternatives. Thanks in Advance Sonali
