[Gambas-user] Problem with DataComboView in Gambas 3.10

Hello all.

This is my first try at posting to this user list. Please be kind 
pointing out any errors I may make posting here.

I have been trying out Gambas for a few projects I have in mind. One 
project is a recipe database I have used sporadically since the old PC 
dBase III days. In that time I have converted it to various other forms 
from MS Access to LibreOffice Base, etc.

I am retired now and recently, I decided to try to work on it using 
Gambas data functions. I have parts of it working using a mysql database 
on my linux laptop.

I have a many-to-many relationship from the Recipes table, thru the 
IngredientList table to the Measure, Foods and FoodPrep tables. I use 
autoincrement ID's in all tables.

I was moving along pretty well until I upgraded to Gambas 3.10. I was 
using 3.8.? (I don't remember) before. The trouble is with using the 
DataComboView to update the FoodID in IngredientList from the Foods 
table. In 3.8.? I could use the control if I opened it up with a mouse 
click, then arrow keyed it down to my choice and then clicked the 
choice. If I mouse scrolled to the item it would not select, but it 
closed the combo. Now, in 3.10, when there are enough items in the combo 
drop-down to activate the vertical scroll bar, as soon as I select an 
item I get a Null object error. (See the screen shots in the attached 
tar.gz)

I tried the same thing in the Gambas example database by adding colors 
until there were enough to make the scroll bar appear and it gave the 
same error.

I included a copy of my system info in the tar.gz, also.

I would appreciate any help or insight you all may have to offer.

Thanks,

Dave
