Default Probllem Populating a ComboBox

I have an unbound ListBox and an unbound ComboBox on the same form. I
have them both set up to display the values from the same field in the
same table. The ListBox displays the correct values; the ComboBox
displays nothing.

The form is just a test form I'm using to sort this problem out. It has
no other controls on it and no code associated with any portion. The
table is a very simple table, set up just to sort this out.

I have tried various property values with no success. I have tried
using the wizard to create the ComboBox, but the results are the same.

I apologize if this is some newbie problem, but it is driving me crazy.

Thanks in advance.

What's the SQL behind your combo box? What's the SQL behind your list box?

In the associated Property Boxes I have set the Row Source Type for
each as Table/Query. In the Row Source property for each I have entered
the field tblReportNames. The listbox dutifully lists the three values
currently in the table. The ComboBox remains blank.
