I don't have a 2 or more element combo box handy, but take a look at my FAQ on listboxes. To get the 2nd item it requires a addlistitem instead of add item. I suspect it is the same concept with a combo box.

Hello Mensud.

Try code like thisin the combo box's Init()

WITH This
  .BoundColumn = 2
  .BoundTo = .T.
  .AddItem( "Apples" )
  .List[ .NewIndex, 2 ] = 1
  .AddItem( "Oranges" )
  .List[ .NewIndex, 2 ] = 2
  .AddItem( "Bananas" )
  .List[ .NewIndex, 2 ] = 3
ENDWITH
