select row in combobox

My code is currently written to select or highlight the first row in a combobox. For example:

cboExample.ListIndex = 0

I need it to select or highlight the row that applies to the selected ID. If I write code to try to select a different row, I get an error. Here's an example:

cboExample.ListIndex = i

What is the best practice for specifying a row in a single-select combobox when you know what ItemData to look for??

Thanks...

Do I get you right or...

...am I brabbling bullshit

You want to select a specific Item in a ComboBox?
you could just use this:

Code:

---

Combo1.AddItem "Jop"
Combo1.AddItem "TragAnn"
Combo1.Text = Combo1.List(1)

---

But I'm not quite sure if that's what you mean. Anyway, let me know (please)

BTW, this code works to but be sure to give i a number:

Code:

---

Dim i As Integer
i = 1
Combo1.AddItem "Jop"
Combo1.AddItem "TragAnn"
Combo1.ListIndex = i

---

That's what you needed?

Jop - Yes...thanks for the help. I was over-complicating the issue, plus I found some erroneous code below the piece I was working with that was resetting the ListIndex back to 0. Not good. Cleaned that up and works like a champ.

Peace.
