Updating a cursor from within a form.

[mikejcurtis]

I have a form with Comboboxes. I'd like the user to be able to either select content from the drop-down, or type an entry. I've set the RowSource to be the Alias I created and that works nice, except if the user tries to add a value not contained in the query. I can see that the DisplayValue needs to be added to the query, but I don't understand how to update that query. How can the value typed in by the user be added to the query?
