Combo Box not displaying selected value in Grid

[AlastairP]

I have a combo box in a grid

The combo box displays its value when not focused, but when it has focus, and also when I click the combo to activate the drop list, the value disappears. I just see the backcolor change only, no value in the top display of the combo.
I can make selection in the drop list and this works fine except I do not see the new selection until the combo no longer has focus. Any ideas?

Alastair,

Try changing the column's Sparse property to .F.

(Note that's the column's property, not the grid's.)

Edit - it was something to do with having the control source set. Once I removed that the behaviour returned to normal.
