Very Basic Combo Box question

[5speed]

For some reason I can not figure out how to add stuff to a combo box. I am missing something, but not sure what.

I would like a drop down list of the diff states that the user would select and whatever they select needs to be used later. (set it = to a variable) So I made my little combo box, tried to add but am not calling something right. I know this is prob very basic and easy but I couldn't find it on the web already, since it is too easy. Thank you for your help.

LOL
i just know Nucleus will beat me to finish this!!

In say a button click or form load event

Combo1.Clear
Combo1.Additem "Blah"
Combo1.Additem "Again"
Combo1.Listindex = 0

You get the selected item's index from the Listindex property when you click the Combo box.

MyVar = Combo1.ListIndex

The selected item can also be gained from

MyString = Combo1.List(Combo1.Listindex)
