[2005] SelectChangedCommitted in combo box

[steve_rm]

Hello,

I want to detect when a user selects an item from a combo box, Normally I use the selectChangedCommitted event of the combo box. However, I am creating a PDA using WM 5.0, and that event is not available. They have only selectValueChanged and selectItemChanged.

However, I want the event to fire only when the user has selected from the combo box.

Is there a way to create an new event to do this, or is there another event I can use to do this.

Many thanks in advance,

Steve

Just use one of the existing events and perform a test within the handler to check whether the change was performed by the user or programmatically. You then set a Boolean variable each time you want to make a change and reset it after. That Boolean variable is what you test in the event handler.
