Hint: For Combos backed by Memory Tables, the Display Inactive button in ButtonsAvailable will only work if the memory table has two indexes: one called "PrimaryKey", and one called "ActivePrimaryKey", where "ActivePrimaryKey" is a key on a boolean field called "Inactive". At design time, the combo and the memory table must use the non-active index in the IndexName property.
For example, if the Primary Key is CustomerCode, then Index1 could be "Customer" and Index 2 could be "ActiveCustomer".
