I'm having a frustrating problem with what should be a simple use of a combobox.

The problem is that the combobox does not show the currently selected value (displayvalue) properly -- either when it first comes up (where its controlsource is already assigned a value that matches an entry in its rowsource), or when I click on an item in the dropdown.

The crsr_Employees table is simple -- field 'name' is character, field 'empidnum' is numeric.

(Note that even though the item clicked on does not show up correctly in the combobox, the correct value is saved correctly in the controlsource.)

BTW -- there is NO method or event code for this combobox -- plain old vanilla stuff.

Help!

	ADD OBJECT updatetable1.cntupd.cntedit.combo1 AS combobox WITH ;

		BoundColumn = 2, ;
		ColumnCount = 2, ;
		ColumnWidths = "200,0", ;
		RowSourceType = 6, ;
		RowSource = "crsr_Employees.name, empidnum", ;
		ControlSource = "Thisform.oBusObj.oData.empidnum", ;
		Height = 24, ;
		Left = 536, ;
		TabIndex = 13, ;
		Top = 38, ;
		Width = 168, ;
		BoundTo = .T., ;
