>I have a simple form containing a Combobox. The RowSourceType is 6. The RowSource is 2 fields, a description field and an integer key field. The ControlSource is a form property whose value is one of the key fields. When I run the form, the Combo is initially blank. When I make a selection all behaves as normal. If I change the Form property to the record number and run the form, the cooresponding record is selected and displayed.

The combo box tracks the key as a character value, not an integer.
