to show what I am after :



break on

$ini = @scriptdir + "\cbo.ini"
$list = split(readprofilestring($ini,"List",""),chr(10))
redim preserve $List[ubound($list) -1]

$form           = createobject("kixtart.form")

$cbo1           = $form.ComboBox
$cbo1.List      = $List
$cbo1.ListIndex = 0


$form.Show
while $form.visible
    $=execute($form.Doevents)
loop

exit



Plus cbo.ini :

code:
[list]
Value1=ITEM1
Value2=ITEM2
Value3=ITEM3
Value4=ITEM4
Value5=ITEM5
Value6=ITEM6
Value7=ITEM7
