>>A few months ago we updated our app to VFP6 from VFP5. A form used to add records has worked perfectly in VFP5 however, we suddenly found that the drop down combo boxes are not being updated as the user adds new records in our VFP6 version. I have verified that the code DID NOT change, but VFP6 will not update the array for the rowsource of the combo box. Here's a brief summary...
>>
>>Form Property:
>>laac[1,1]
>>
>>Combo Box Rowsource:
>>THISFORM.laac
>>
>>Combo Box RowType:
>>array
>>
>>After adding each new record we do this:
>>select distinct field1,field2 from file into thisform.laac
>>
>>If you drop down the combo box, it does NOT contain the most recently entered data into field1 and field2. HOWEVER, the array, thisform.laac, is properly updated.
>>
>>If I attempt to update the rowsource with:
>>thisform.cboLAAC.rowsource = thisform.laac
>>
>>I end up with nothing in the drop down combo box. I've tried just refreshing the combo box, but nothing that worked in VFP5 seems to work in VFP6.
>>
>>Any and all suggestions are greatly appreciated! I really need to resolve this quickly since we have a number of users who are wondering what gives...
>>
>>Thanks.


Vlad:
I just wanted to thank you for your response. You were right on with your suggestion. We got it fixed in a minimum of time and without a lot of re-programming. Best regards from your friend in the USA.
