Hello Geoff.

>> Eventually the application will be used over the net and I will alter the above code to require (probably) three charactors of the address before allowing a dropdown thus prventing the entire customer listings going across the net. <<

Exactly how many addresses do you have in the combo box? IMHO, a combo box should display, at most, 2 or 3 dozen choices to the users. If there are more than this, you have chosen the wrong control for the job.

What exactly are you trying to accomplish here? Maybe we can come up with a better implementation.

>> Your reply may have given me the answer, I believe. If I add a non-display field at the front (eg. ColumnWidths=0,60,250) and repeat the appropriate field as the first field (RowSource=Cust.Street,Stno,Street). <<

Even if column 1 has a columnWidth of 0, it will still be used for the display value.
