Larry,
I'm not sure what you're doing, but have you tried adding THIS.Refresh() after your updating code? Also, remember that combos show the VALUE assigned to the combo, and going to the correct record in the cursor filling the combo is not sufficient. You may need to requery the combo or assign a new value to it.

>I've been using the InterActiveChange() event for a number of text boxes to make a spreadsheet like interface. But I noticed that if I have a combo box and I have code in the InterActiveChange event, the end result is that the code executes fine, but the combo box itself doesn't update (at least in appearance). It remains blank. My only recourse here is to use place the code in the Valid() or LostFocus() event....which is contrary to the rest of my interface.
