This is getting to be really irritating
so...code from lost focus of First Name

lname = Thisform.TxtLName.Value
fname = This.Value
SELECT officer
SET ORDER TO FULLNAME   && PADR(UPPER(LASTNAME),25)+PADR(UPPER(FIRSTNAME),25)
SEEK padr(Upper(lname),25) + padr(Upper(fname),25)
IF FOUND()
  Select Lastname, Firstname, DOB, empcnty From Officer ;
    WHERE padr(Upper(LASTNAME),25)+ padr(Upper(FIRSTNAME),25) = padr(Upper(lname),25) + padr(Upper(fname),25) ;
    INTO Cursor Countit nofilter      &&This returns 2 rows 
  If Reccount() = 1
    Thisform.editmode = "Edit"
    Thisform.fillin
  Else
    Thisform.lblSelectPerson.Visible = .T.
    Thisform.cboSelectPerson.RowSource = ''  && added per previous suggestion
    With Thisform.cboSelectPerson
      .RowSourceType = 6
      .RowSource =  "Countit.lastname, firstname, DOB, empcnty"
      .ColumnCount = 4
      .ColumnWidths = '150,150,75,150'
      .Visible = .T.
      .ListIndex = 1
    Endwith
  Endif
Endif

The label and combobox displays, but the combobox is empty

This is the same setup for a combobox that I'm using all over creation, but this is the only one that's not combo'ing. I have checked/compared the properties and all seems to be the same (except for the names, of course)

What am I missing? 'Cuz as irritating as this has been, I just KNOW it's something simple

With strange behaviour of my form I open the scx file as a dbf and I replace all the objcode with "". Then I recompile the form.
