Combo Box Display Problem

I have a combo box that displays contact names. The recordsource
contains ID and contact names (displayed as 0;1", column count 2, bound
column 1).

All works well except while changing records on the main form the
combos do not refresh their display to the current record. They just go
blank when moving to another existing record.

Refreshing that record will cause the combo to display the proper
value. Also, using a me.refresh on the main form's On Current event,
works.

It just seems that I should not have to do this (manual refresh via
code) on record change. Shouldn't the combo refresh itself like they do
when displaying a bound column?

and you tried requerying the combobox in the OnCurrent event of your
form?

Yes that does work, but I would like to avoid that. It doesn't seem
like that should have to be done. Why don't the combos function like
most other controls, auto-refreshing when changing records? It seems
like this could be a bug.
