But if I open the form without the cursor and the form.BindControls is set to .F., the combobox is empty (clicking on pull-down shows no elements). Even though the combo is not bound to any field of the cursor.

It is the expected behavior for form.BindControls = .F.
All controls show their initial values, nothing more.

If you are using form.BindControls = .F. just to speed up the form loading, then set form.BindControls = .T. in the form.activate event.


Good Luck
