The RowSource property identifies what will be used to populate the combobox/listbox - in this case, you'd specify your table name.
The RowSourceType property tells what kind of thing is referred to by your RowSource property - table, list of fields, alias, query, etc. There are about 10 possibilities (don't worry, only a small fraction might be applicable.) It tells VFP how to interpret the RowSource property's content.
The ControlSource is the field or variable that will get filled with the value for the current row. You can select which column of the combobox RecordSource is used to populate the ControlSource. It's also used to indicate the initial value that is selected in the combobox when you first initialize it.
