Hello all -

I am trying to populate a ComboBox from a ColdFusion component. The cfc is simply querying a db to get a list of products.

However, the code I am placing in the Actions panel:

function PartsList\_Result(result) {  
DataGlue.bindFormatStrings(test\_cb, result, “#name#”, “#partsID#”);  
}

doesn’t appear to be working correctly. The only result I see is a blank box that when I hit the arrow, the first item in the query is returned. From what I have read, I thought that the code above would be all I need. So I’m not sure why:

1. The first item is not automatically selected
2. The rest of the list is not there.

I assume I’m being stupid, so I would appreciate any guidance you can lend.

Thanks,  
Keith
