Ahmad,

>>So, how databinding will know that value "3" in "Nationality" filed in "Members" table belongs to value "3" in "Code" PK field & "Nat_Name" field in "Nationality" table ?

Why? Because, that's how ComboBoxes work!! You're binding to the column in the "Members" table that has the code in it, and the DataSource for your ComboBox is the "Nationality" table. Am I missing something or are you?
