>>Or is it just displaying it the wrong way? Try to Set Decimals to 10 or so, and see if it's just the visual representation that's wrong.

>Hello again. Thanks for trying to help me here. I tried what you said, "setting decimals to 10" and it still will not work. There seems no way to bind this a VFP combo control to an integer field. Anyone else out there have a work around?

I use integers in combos all the time, but then the rowsource is practically always fields, i.e. "alias.displayfield,integerkey", and these integers are usually small and surely not negative. I wonder if large negative integers may somehow be out of scope for Fox? I assume the definition of large would be "negative with the 31st bit used". This is not the only place where VFP's definition of integer as "signed 32-bit integer" doesn't really work; it's also when you try to use some APIs which need large unsigned integers (with 31st bit set) that we have problems.
