I see I am not the first to have problems with ComboBox and will most likely not be the last

This is likely to be an easy one for most of you... i put it down to my age


am using Visual Studio - Visual Basic..


I have a form, datatables etc

take the Northwind sample

a table of products it contains supplier id, instead of id number i want to show supplier name
allow the user to select the supplier from the combobox.

i can do this in a grid no problem... but on detail ... the property names are not the same


what property fields do i set to what
