Why not use a combobox with multiple columns; make the WorkerName the first column, and a later column that is not displayed as the BoundColumn?

>>I am having trouble with a grid. I have three tables :

>> TicketID
>> Ticket info, etc.

>>Table 2: Ticket workers (can have many workers associated with 1 ticket)
>> TicketID
>> WorkerID

>>Table 3: Workter table
>> WorkerID
>> Worker Name
>> Worker info, etc.

>>On the ticket entry form I have a grid with the worker information in it. The grid is setup to display/store the WorkerIDs in table 2, it uses a combo box in a single column. The combo box works fine, but the grid shows the WorkerID when not in focus. What is the property that I need to change to display the name from the combo box instead of the WorkerID?
