I think you may have meant Combobox?

So far as I know, TEXTVALUE is not supported for any comboboxes (edit and memo
controls only) and SELECTION is not supported by DB based controls (variable
controls only).

You need to update the actual value in the underlying column.  Unfortunately,
there is no PROPERTY command to get directly to the column value.  Two
possibilities are:

1. Place an invisible DBEdit attached to the column and use PROPERTY TEXTVALUE
on that or. . .
2. Save the row, update the underlying record, and refresh the row.

The limitations I mentioned are in 7.1, I don't know about 7.5 -- they may have
been lifted.
