Radimus Radimus Moderator Registered: 2000-01-06 Posts: 5187 Loc: Tampa, FL	Is there a way to replace the contents of a combo box... basically, I have 1 combo box listing all the OUs in my domain, and upon click(change) I want it to update/replace the contents of a second combobox. _________________________ How to ask questions the smart way <-----------> Before you ask

Here's some sample code...

code:

Break On CLS
 
$Form = CreateObject("Kixtart.Form")
$Form.Size = 220,100

$Combo1 = $Form.ComboBox(,20,30,200)
$Combo1.Top = 5
$Combo1.Left = 5
$Combo1.Additem (@WKSTA)
$Combo1.OnClick = "fnChangeBox()"

$Combo2 = $Form.ComboBox(,20,30,200)
$Combo2.Top = $Combo1.Bottom
$Combo2.Left = 5
$Combo2.AddItem (UserID1)
$Combo2.AddItem (UserID2)

$Form.Center
$Form.Show
 
While $Form.Visible 
	$nul=Execute($Form.DoEvents)
Loop

Function fnChangeBox()
	$Combo2.Clear
	$Combo2.AddItem (@USERID)
EndFunction

Shawn Shawn Administrator Registered: 1999-08-13 Posts: 8611	Rad, might also want to check into pre-selecting an item from each list Two ways to do that: Using index numbers: $Form.Show $Combo1.ListIndex = 0 $Combo2.ListIndex = 1 Using values: $Form.Show $Combo1.Value = @WKSTA $Combo2.Value = UserID2 Little itty-bitty form there ... -Shawn

Shawn Shawn Administrator Registered: 1999-08-13 Posts: 8611	Forgot to mention, depending on what you had in mind, might want to chnage the ComboBox style from DropDown (default) to DropDownList. The DropDown style allows the user to select an item from the list, plus create their own item by editing the textbox. The DropDownList style only allows the user to select an item from the list. Style ComboBox: Gets or sets a value specifying the style of the combo box. Valid values are as follows: 0 - Simple 1 - DropDownList 2 - DropDown

Radimus Radimus Moderator Registered: 2000-01-06 Posts: 5187 Loc: Tampa, FL	I was wondering about that... Just need to display the contents, not try to accept input _________________________ How to ask questions the smart way <-----------> Before you ask
