Answer : combo boxes feeding id number into table and not name
you will set the bound column of the combo to 2
if your rowsource is
select id,name from tablex
another way is:
to see the name in the table, do this
set the bound column to 1 (ID field)
set the column count to 2
set the column widths to 0;1
