You can always display more than one field by populating the combobox with an SQL statement (RowSourceType = 3 - SQL; RowSource = "Select Lname, Fname, cust_id from customer..." or "Select alltrim(Lname) + ', ' + Fname, cust_id...")
This works well for listboxes where you are choosing from an existing list. The problem with a combobox is that it allows you to enter data. If you have multiple fields, which field is getting written to?
