I have a scrolling region which will have 45 or so objects in a detail table
in a one-to-many form.  For three fields, I need the functionality of a DB
Lookup ComboBox, populate and pick from a text field in a lookup table and
return an integer to the underlying table's field.  I successfully use this
in the header table.

For example, one field is truck_type, an integer, the truck_type_desc is in
another table.  Truck_type might be '22' and the corresponding description
is 'flat bed'.  I want to click on 'flat bed' and have it return '22'.

I cannot place a DB Lookup ComboBox on a scrolling region.  I can place a
Variable Lookup ComboBox but it doesn't show up after I save the form so I
assume it's also not allowed (it doesn't generate any error messages).  

Is there another way to do this?  Any suggestion to get me going again?

TIA
