Wire up a ComboBox.

How do I wire up ComboBox to my data table to store my selection and to my lookup table that allows me to make that selection:

Here is my attempt. Please correct me.

Configuration and DataBinding of the ComboBox...

DropDownStyle:
DropDownList

DataSource:
The bindingSource for the lookup table that I put in the component tray "bsPhase"

Display Member:
The column of the lookup table that I want to display in the "Phase"

Value Member:
The column of the lookup table that contains the value that is linked to the table that the form is bound to "pkPhaseID"

Selected Value:
What is this for?

---
DataBindings configuration properties of the ComboBox

(Name):
ComboBoxfkPhaseID

(DataBindings) (Advanced):
I don't think I need this.

(DataBindings) Selected Item:
What is this for?

(DataBindings) Selected Value:
What is this for? (? Shouldn't this be the target column of my main table?)

(DataBindings) Tag:
I don't think I need this.

(DataBindings) Text:
The BindingSource for the Main table and the column to bind it to "bsMTask - fkPhaseID"
(? shouldn't this be the text of the lookup table I wish to display?)

Please tell me what I have missed.

Thank you,
Doug
