I need to repeat that a control is *set* driven. You can't arbitrarily populate it will fields from different tables.

Perhaps you would like to go to http://www.ibobjects.com/TechInfo.html and download the two papers there on using IB Objects controls. One of them has a "walk-through" of the logic of both setting up and using TIB_LookupCombo. The key concepts for this control are "double-data-aware" and "lookup".

Also please look up the helpfile for TIB_LookupCombo.
