I'm not sure I've understood correctly but you can specify the width of the combo by setting the ColumnWidths property.
However, I have notised that this only works when you have a 2 column combo so...
with loCombo
.RowsourceType=6
.RowSource=table.Text,SomeOtherField
.ColumnCount=2
.ColumnLines=.F.
.ColumnWidth=150,0
endwith
Where 150 is your desired width.
