Well Chris, then u may want to add both combos to u're form :). Seriously, i think u modified the ColumWidths propertie the first time to show the desc, so i guess u need to set that property with the second column having 0 width, or even better erase the value of that property, since now u want the *default* column to be displayed.
(hope this is not getting confussing :))
