You don't talk about the Progress/OpenEdge version you are using ...

A combo-box widget is not refreshed automatically when the data source ( a database table or whatever ) changes. You must do this manually and you need to think about how you want to trigger it. Using a combo-box widget to display data which comes from a database table which changes often is, IMHO of course, not a good idea.
