Ok, sorry about to lower the standards guys, but i have to post this question:

I have a form on which i have two combo boxes pre-loaded with 1 - 24 indicating hours, and 0, 5, 10.... up to 55 to indicate minutes. I have used the .additem method in the form's load event to do this.

What i want to do is allow the user to select the required hours and minutes to be used in a timer event. I don't have any problems with the conversion stuff.

My problems are in fact, twofold. The first is this:

I am trying to identify when the user changes a value. Being used to Access, i looked for an afterupdate event, but no such luck... :-( I have found the change event, and can't understand why this doesn't work:

Private Sub cboHours_Change()

lblHours = cboHours.Text
lblHours.Refresh

End Sub

Why don't i see the selected value in lblHours????

My second problem, is how do i store the selected values so that when the program is re-opened, the vlues are still there? I'd like to see them displayed, but still offer the values i listed at the beginning of my posting.

Thank guys.
