John,
First, you should update the combos as you move through the view. Second, as part of the form refresh after each record change you should be sure the correct data is showing for each combo.

If the combos are bound to fields they SHOULD update correctly without further intervention. If not, you may have to set the value: Thiscombo.value = Mytable.Field1

Don't forget that after re-doing the SELECT statement for each combo you must also do a combo.requery() so the data shows in the combo.

>Hi,

>I have 5 combo boxes on a sales order form:

>Cobox Box              ControlSource
>=========              =============
>cboCustCode            lvSO.CustCode

>cboBillToCode          lvSO.BillToCode
>cboBuyerCode           lvSO.BuyerCode
>cboShipToCode          lvSO.ShipToCode
>cboTransportCode       lvSO.TransportCode

>The last four contain only the allowable selections pertaing to a specific Customer which the user will initially choose (cboCustCode).
>To do this, in the GotFocus() event of each of the last combo boxes I code:
>
>SELECT BILLTOCODE, BILLNAME,BILLADDRESS1,BILLPROVINCE, BILLPOSTALCODE, BILLPROVINCECODE, BILLCOUNTRYCODE, BILLATTENTION FROM CUSTOMER_BILL_TO WHERE CUSTOMERID=CUSTOMER.ID
>
>I do this for the buyer,shipto, and transport.....
>
>lvSO is a complete local view of SO table.
>
>My problem is that when I move through the local view lvSO, (Next, previous, etc., command buttons on my SO form, the value stored in my last four combo boxes is not displayed, even though the lvSO view and the SO table contain and display the same and identical data!

>The selections of the combo boxes are OK.

>If I replace the combo boxes with text boxes, everything works great, but I can nnot use this solution, because this would require the user have a huge memory and remember all codes for each customer. :0(
