Well stumbled accross the answer myself.

I had the Property Style set to csDropDown, and changing this to
csDropDownList, caused the integer value in itemvalues property to be
stored.

Thanks anyway

Adrian

Subject: [IBO] IB_combobox , items and itemValues properties not working
as expected.


Dear All

Thank you for helping.

I want to display the following values for example in a IB_ComboBox

Red, Green, Orange, Yellow.

I want to store the folowing integer values in the actual field in the
database:
1, 2,3,4; ie 1 = red, 2 = Green etc.

I thought that I could place the items in the Items property, and the
actual
values that will be stored in the ItemValues property, but this does not
seem to have an effect, as actually trying to store red in the integer
field
instead of 1.

All help no matter how trivial will be appreciated.

Regards

Adrian
