Jason,
>>I am getting an error about selected not being a property.<Yeah, I goofed, you saw my other post didn't you? (use MyCombo.SelectedIndex = i instead)
>Additionally I have to turn of Option Strict because of a late binding issue. How in the world do other programmers load a form with combos on them? I mean if the database is properly normalized then the table should only have a reference to the lookup table right? How do I load all of the choices in the combo but still display the current value in the master table?<Sorry, I guess I don't get the question. Wanna ask it again?
