FIX: DBCombo BoundText Incorrect When Setting Text Property

MORE INFORMATION

The DBLIST32.OCX control that ships with Visual Basic 4.0 returned the BoundText properly in this situation. It is possible that the Visual Basic 5.0 version of DBLIST32.OCX could break an application built with Visual Basic 4.0 when the DBLIST32.OCX control is upgraded.

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

These steps use the BIBLIO.MDB sample database that ships with Visual Basic.

1. Start a new Standard EXE Project in Visual Basic. Form1 is created by default.
2. Place a data control (Data1) on Form1. Set the DataBaseName property to BIBLIO.MDB. Set the RecordsSource to the Authors table.
3. From the Project menu, choose Components. Add the "Microsoft Data Bound List Controls" to the project.
4. Add a DBCombo control (DBCombo1) to the form. Set the RowSource property to Data1. Set the BoundColumn to AU_ID. Set the ListField to Author.
5. Add a CommandButton (Command1) to Form1. Add the following code to the Click event of Command1:

         Private Sub Command1_Click()
            DBCombo1.Text = "Curry, Dave"
            MsgBox DBCombo1.BoundText
         End Sub
   
   						

6. Save and run the project.
7. Click the CommandButton and note that a blank message box pops up. It should have popped up with the AU_ID corresponding to the Author "Curry, Dave."
