ListBoundField Property

                  Applies To

Returns or sets the field that is bound in the specified list or combo box (as opposed to the field that is displayed). Applies only to list boxes and combo boxes. Read/write String.

Remarks

Use the ListDisplayField property to return or set the displayed field.

This property is used with the ListRowSource property and the ListDisplayField property to control how data is displayed in a list box or combo box. For example, consider a list box which displays product names in a section called Order Details. The recordset behind the Order Details section includes a field named ProductID which is the product for a given Order Detail record. But instead of displaying ProductID in a textbox, the page author wants to display product names in a dropdown list box. The list box can be filled with a recordset definition named Products which contains fields called ProdID and ProductName from the Product table. The properties of this list box element would be set as shown in the following table.
