Thankyou Geoff,
The application is a bit complicated because the 'Select' statement is for a
'lookupsql' property. I have avoided the problem by selecting both fields
and combining them in a 'beforegetvalue' function, but the message from
Steve Koterski offers another, probably better, way so I will probably  try
that also.
