Gregory,

This is exactly what I tried in InteractiveChange with no desired effect at all :(( This little problem is driving me crazy, not to mention all other problems somehow introduced with this combo... :(

Oops, I solved the first problem by:

this.value=this.value
replace BldMstr.ccode with curTowns.ccode
this.parent.parent.column2.refresh()

Note, a column refresh, not a text1, which didn't work for some reason.

Still I have other problem with not properly highlighting the current record

All other problems, which I mentioned in my reply to Cetin, are more important. I'm thinking, that combo in a grid is a bad choice. May be I have to create a container based class instead?
