For instance if I ADD a new BATCH record and link it to a product, there should now be a new record in the combo dropdown. But despite doing a cmbCombo.REQUERY this is not so. The same with a BROWSE of the view as also when a record is deleted or edited.

Thanks for your reply. NO. The cursor is not Parametzed. I "MODI DATABASE" the DBC and added a "Local View" using the Wizard. Does this change anything?

Other than that, your suggestion works perfectly. I looked it up in HELP.

Thank You
