I have a form array that is populated with afont. The array is used to populate a combobox. I want to position the combobox at "courier new" if courier new is found in the array. Following that, I display the font in a textbox. What is strange is that after running the code below, the textbox displays courier new font, but the listbox displays the first item in the list! Any ideas? I've looked at this too many times and I'm missing the obvious I'm sure....
TIA,
Tracy

code to locate font in array:
form.init()
gnPos = ASCAN(thisform.gaFontArray, 'Courier New')
*Note the result here is the correct value-it locates it fine
IF gnPos != 0    && this code runs because it did find the value in the array
    thisform.combo1.requery()
    thisform.combo1.listindex=gnPos
    thisform.text1.click()  && displays text in the courier new font in txtbox
ENDIF
Here is the strange part. As I said, the combo box actually displays the first item in the list, but the code below displays the text in the correct font of courier new!

Textbox code that works as it should:
thisform.text1.click()
THIS.value="This is an example of the font "+ALLTRIM(thisform.combo1.value)+".  Size "+ALLTRIM(thisform.combo2.value)
This.fontname=ALLTRIM(thisform.combo1.value)
This.fontsize=VAL(ALLTRIM(thisform.combo2.value))
thisform.refresh()
DODEFAULT()
What am I missing?
