Hi there, I am new to file maker. I have a table called category
(category_id (int) and description (text))
In the Product table, there is a field, category_id which is related to
the category table.
I have a drop-down list, where you can select the category and the
category name comes up fine.
However, when you finish selecting the category, the cateogry_id is
displayed, not the display text.

What am I doing wrong, I am sure there is an easy way for the display
member to be displayed and not the foreign key value?

Thanks

David.
 
This is a access group not a File Maker. However if you questio is for
Access combo box
then set the columnwidths property to 0 for the first column and sth
greater than 0 for the first column you want visible
for instance 0;2
