>>Combobox I want to display in the text side of a combobox the value contained in a field. The value contained in a field is a numeric double. The combobox box is put on a form and the controlsource is the table.field what are the property and methords need to be changed in code to display the numeric value when the combobox is displayed on the form. If I do a skip to next record I want to show in the combobox in the text side a new value the value contained in the field in the current record.

Thanks but what about the displaying of a numeric value how do you handle the displaying od a numeric value in the text side of a combobox. When a combobox comes display the contents of the record using the SQL sourcerowtype = 3. If the value is numeric contain in the table defined as a integer or double with no decimals.
