Hello,

Latest Update : Problem Solved.

Well the problem was with primary key domains.

In earlier Database the PK of lookup table was CHAR(6)
in new version of Database it was changed to VARCHAR(6).

After spending a day (today) and sleepless night yesterday
and numerous tests as of this time the problem is solved.
Now lookupcombo shows desired values.

I think IBO compares lookup value with padding and
compares with fetched lookup data which comes are trimmed
since PK domain was varchar.

In case where Lookup value was full six character long the
lookup combo was showing correct value (One of test revealed this)
which gave clue to think about looking at structures of both
old and new databases and immediately it was noticed that
PK domains have been changed to VARCHARS. Recreating new
database with updated domains and pumping test data we could
see IB_LookupCombo functioning as expected.

Hope this help others in case of some strange behaviour is
noticed with IBO.

Thanks and warm regards.

Raja
