Hi Renoir.

>> Simple, I'm sure, but how do I get the current value of a field in a view (set as ControlSource) to show as the initial value in a Combobox? I am also trying to use SQL as the Rowsource (pulling from the same view that contains the ControlSource) so the user can get a list of all current values for that field to choose from. Am I approaching this incorrectly? Thanks! <<

Typically, you use a combo box to pull information from one table (a lookup table ) into its RowSource so that users can pick a value to use as data in another table (the one to which the combo is bound...the one that contains its ControlSource )

How is your combo set up? RowSource, RowSOurceType, ControlSource, BoundColumn? And if your ControlSource is numeric, you must set BoundTo = .T.

If your combo has a ControlSource specified, refreshing the combo should display the correct value. Is this not happening for you?
