Combo boxes do not show selection

I've created a form with combo drop down boxes in which the user only needs to click on the arrow to bring up the selections. The type in option has been disabled. The problem is when the selection is made, it does not show in the combo box. I have gone through the properties thinking i missed something but can not seem to find anything that corrects this. What am I missing???

Hi,
Maybe this will help, follow the instructions and should do the trick.
I just made mine from these instructions and worked OK EXCEPT the drop down font is very very small. I have posted a thread here to see if anyone can help in the font size, but this worked for me.
