I want a default display value to showup in TBLookUpCombobox without the 
user having to click it, i tried setting the datafield of the underlying 
table with the keyfield value from the list source, it didnt work. Any 
suggestions on how i can do this?

i am using delphi 2006, dbgo with firebird DB.

TIA

Have you tried to navigate the listsource.dataset to the record you
want as the default value? If I remember correctly this should have the
effect you are after.

Actually i was doing it the rightway, i made a mistake in assigning a char 
to an integer field. Its working great now. Thanks for replying though.
