>Nope, that didn't work. What I had to do was an explicit call to the Requery method of the combobox whenever I requeried the view. If the combobox had focus right before the view requery, I had to deselected any selected records before the view requery and combo requery. Weird, huh?

I think that there is some intrinsic file selections that go on in refresh and requery that can stumble over themselves sometimes without intervention. I have never figured this one out. Also, there seems to be some small curb that is occationally tripped over when either calling base class code or returning from it. I had a case in VFP 3 where I had to select the private data session of the form before executing some base class code or it looked for the table in the default(0) datasession. Wrote that one off as strange and haven't run into it since.
