I'd switch the array around so the text is first column and the integer is in the second column (since I believe combos show the first column on the form).

Then change the BoundColumn to 2 and change your ColumnWidths so they are "50,0" or some such so that the second column of the integer doesn't show up (if in fact you don't want it to show when pulled down).

Is there a reason why you need the number first and the text second?
