combo box

[jamesho]

Hope somebody can help me with this problem.
I have a combo box selection for user. It contents for eg.:
A
B
C
When user clicks and selects, say, "B", it will be selected and when the user selects from the same combo box again, the following is listed
A
B
B
C
The item "B" appears twice in the combo list. If user selects "B" again, it will then appear three times in the list.
How do I prevent this from happening and get the original combo list?

Thanks & Regards.

not sure what you are doing but just clear your combo and then call your load combo process again

I'd check the code in your Combo_Change() procedure if I were you. If anything is being added to the Combo list, that's where it's happening from. According to what you've said above.

I meant Combo_Click().

Sorry, I'm stupid. I was born that way and it's got progressively worse.

All you need is just add another item into the combobox and make sure you jave set the Sorted properties to True

Combo1.Additem Combo1.Text

Chris,

I think he was trying to STOP this from happening!

Oh!...Sucks, I miss out the most important line. So just forget the my previous post. Why not you just set the ComboBox style to Dropdown List?

Thanks guys for all your help and suggestions. Really appreciate it. As suggested by Chris, I tried setting style to Dropdown List, but same problem still occurs.

I have decided to instead convert from using combo boxes to using list box. Think that will solve my problem?

Thanks again!
