Sorry! After selection, a combo box will only display one column, the
first column whose column width is greater than 0".

Assuming the bound column of the combo box is column 1, you can add an
unbound text control to your form.
Set it's control source to:

= ComboBoxName.Column(1)

Since Combo boxes are zero based, column(1) is actually the 2nd
column. Now the Combo will display it's bound value and the text
control the associated name value.
