What about "undo" in the linked comboboxes`?

If you've selected a different value in Combo A, then Combo B should refresh
to reflect what's in Combo A. There's no reason to use the Esc key.

Or have I misinterpretted your question?

Maybe my question was unclear. The [Esc] key is used to cancel edits on
databound forms. If the user chooses to cancel edits then Combo B does not
return to the original value if combo A has been changed. Is there a
workaround for this?

But what about undo? If I select a different value in the boxes and then
press [Esc] the child combo dos'ent refresh. Any solutions to this
problem?

Sorry, I don't know.

Does it make a difference if you hit the Esc key more than once? If you can
do it in code, Me!ComboB.Undo might work
