Stranger yet.

So, I tried manually loading the ComboBoxes and that did not fix the
problem. I created events for each of the comboBoxes shown below. The
events only fire when you change values in the combobox as you would expect.
But the really strange part is that creating these events fixed the
problem!!!!

private void ddlCategory_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender,
System.EventArgs e)
{
    string strTemp = "";
}

private void ddlObsUnits_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender,
System.EventArgs e)
{
    string strTemp = "";
}
