Fred, You capture the value with the GETPROPERTY GETPROPERTY <Component ID> TEXTVALUE 'varname' And you change the value with the PROPERTY PROPERTY <Component ID> TEXTVALUE 'value' for a DBLookupComboBox
Or use a Variable LookupComboBox to return the user's choice. I'm not sure this is what you are trying to do however. Can you explain?

I can easily capture the starting value in a variable. I need to be able to change the value and capture the new value while I'm still in the form. Can I do that and, if so, how? I've tried every way but the right way. Thanks Fred Fred C.
