VB files compiled to run exe file

[jewel]

not too sure how to approach but here goes
we have a compiled exe file - made up of numerous files.
this generates a form with drop down boxes using parameter files in csv format - at the moment only allowing the first letter to be effective - how do I change the code to allow the next letter to be effective - eg if choosing a..... this brings up all locations starting with a........ but if I want ad........ how do I do this - because if you type in d after the a - you now get all the locations starting with d - if you think you can help happy to clarify as I may not have explained properly.

here is a portion of the code I think I need to alter

Fill Dept
Read Dept list from Array sRptAry2 and populate Form_Dept combobox with list etc

now presume its how the list is made up they I need to change?
cheers

I notice that you've posted the same question in the VBA forum. You need to decide if it's VB or VBA that you're talking about first.

When you've decided that, post (in the appropriate forum) the actual code that you're using, rather than pseudocode. See faq222-2244 for ways to get better answers.

Good luck!
