    Angry Collection Index vs every other index I can think of **Resolved **

    Why?
    Why aren't collection's indexes zero based?

    I have a list of 'instances' in a combo box
    The 'instances' are members of a collection.

    Item 1 in the combo box has an index of 0
    But.. has an index of 1 in the collection... Pants!
    It would be nice to write:-
    clsObjects.Item(Me.ComboBox1.SelectedIndex).DoSomething
    There are arrays and other controls that link to this collection via the index (or would do if I didn't have to keep remembering to put Index+1)

    Does anyone know how I can get round this nicely?
    Option 1 - Put something else in the combobox (and arrays etc..) at index 0 and start from 1.
    Option 2 - ...
    Thats as far as I got.
    Anyone else had this problem?
