Default Differentiating between displayed field value and stored field val

Good morning,

Please can someone help me with this:
I currently have a combo box on my form that displays three columns of data.
Upon selection of a choice in the combo box:
The bound_column is column 3
The displayed column is column 1

I need to keep the bound column as column 3 as it is linked to a query that
defines the value of a textbox later in the form. However, is there a way I
can make a textbox equal the displayed value in the combobox, ie: column 1?

What I am looking for is some VBA code to make a new textbox, called:
Product_Code = Combo16's displayed value

I am completely stuck but desperately need this, so any help would be
completely appreciated

Thank you

Paul
