I think there is a bug related to this. The autowidth function of
IB_LookupCombo has a problem. In the underlying query, if the primarykey
field is selected first, the dropdown width is the same as the lookupcombo.
If the primary key field is NOT selectected first in the query, then the
autowidth seems to work properly.
