When you place your cursor in the field, does it show the correct fruit? If so, I believe you have the combo's right, but you need to change the Sparse setting of the column containing the combo.

>I stored the fruit_id into the table where I am currently using as the recordsource in the grid. Instead of displaying the name of the fruit like apple, lemon, etc..., I ended up displaying the fruit_id in the grid. The column's controlsource is assign to fruit_id. How can I fix this problem? TIA
