Thanks Daryl:

I must clarify my post:

Actually the data grid shows the information as I spected, but, when I use
the standar right click action of the mouse on the grid (sort A-Z, sort
Z-A, cut, copy paste, filter,...) and use the sort option, the grid is
sorted by the countries ID and that's not what I want, I want the grid sorted
by the alphanumeric name of the country

Then you will have to base the datasheet on a Query including the country
table.

The combo box is not data, is not part of your table, and is not something you
can sort: it's just a display tool, displaying data from *a different table*
(the combo's rowsource).
