Dumb Combo Box Question...

[PogoWolf]

How can I add an item to a Combo Box from code?
I thought 'AddItem' would do the trick.. but my app is coming back saying that it's read-only...

What are you using as RowSource for the combo?

If myCombo.RowSourceType = 0 then only you can use
myCombo.additem(cItem)
Hope this helps

As Ramani pointed out, if your RowSourceType is 0, you can use AddItem. Otherwise, you must add the items to the SOURCE, not to the combo box. For example, if you have RowSourceType of 6, you must add the items to the table(s) involved. If you have Type of 1, you must completely update the RowSource string that contains the values (something like Combo1.RowSource=Combo1.RowSource+"NewItem&quot

Thanks for the messages.. I had my Syntax incorrect for additem.

I was thinking in VB (addItem "blah&quot I replaced it with
Additem("blah&quot and that fixed it!

thank you for the help!!! =)
