Actually, I had already tried that. No work'em. But....
I did find the problem, after simplifying with a test form.
I was using .listitemid instead of .listindex to force the list to where I want it. Don't know if that's the recommended way. But it works! The successful snippet is:
append blank
thisform.mycombo.requery
thisform.mycombo.listindex = 1
thisform.refresh
It seems like modifying .listindex is a trigger for getting the combo to synch up it's displayvalue,value and rowsource. Is that true?
