Thank you very much.

>>I have a control that is based on a combobox class. For a long time I have been using an array as RowSourceType and setting RowSource to the array property of this control (e.g. RowSource = "this.aLookup"). Obviously I have to populate this array in the INIT method of the control. So, to speed up the process, I decided to change it and set the RowSourceType to 2-Alias and set the RowSource to the columns of the alias (e.g. MYCURSOR.COL1, COL2). My question is, why didn't I do it back years ago? Was there a problem with using the Alias as RowSourcetype? That is, I want to avoid possible problem if I go from array to alias.
