There are two tables. The work order table, an operation table (two field table that maps operation codes to operation descriptions). The work order table is related to the operation table with an opcode field. I use this in a combolist to allow the user to select from a list of options that may apply to a work order.

No parameterized view.

The errant textbox seems to be showing the next record (where next is determined by the index order of the table).

Everthing about the tables is set up in the DE except that I do not autoopen the tables. This is so that I can specify the database to be used at run time.
In the LOAD I set the table's cursor's DB to my.dbc then fire the DE.opentables.

>>One other clue could be that I do not refresh in the combolist's valid. Only in it's interactivechange. I've gotten a little hinky about refreshing in the valid of a combolist after some of the stuff I've read. Again, everything does appear to be refreshed at the right times, except the one field, when this problem occurs, so it's hard to believe lack of refresh is a source of the problem.
