Hopefully a simple one (aren't they all when you know how!)

No problem getting a combo box to display the values I want based on the fields in a table. However, the combo box appearance leaves a lot to be desired!

If I only needed a single column, it wouldn't be a problem, but I need two.

I would like, ideally for the width of each column in the dropdown list to reflect the appropriate field length. The first field being 10 - and I need to see all 10. The Second
field being 45 and I need to see at least the first 30 characters.

Can we do this in the 'columnwidth' property? If so, how?

And how can we get the fields to line up or is that solved by the answer to the previous question?

Next, how do we correctly refer to the fields?

If I list them thus - ADDRESS.ACCREF,ADDRESS.COMPANY

I get an error telling me 'field phrase not found'

If I do it ADDRESS.ACCREF,COMPANY as suggested by the vfp help, then I don't an error, but neither do I see matching companies for each account ref (I just see the first company name in the referred table)

I've tried these variations with rowsourcetypes 2 (Alias) and 5(Fields). No difference.

Lastly, why is it that despite having set a (compromise) column width of 20, I'm only seeing the first 3 characters of the first field?

I've hunted high and low for working examples of combo boxes doing things the way I need them done but no joy so far.

Anyone been there, seen it, done it?

Thanks
