Combo box Question

[supercrewed]

I have a combo box I populate from an array, but what I'd like to do, is to have the user be able to modify the data in the combo box, then compare it to the old string from the array, and if the string has changed, then use the new string from the combo box. I can do this perfectly with a text box, but I'm not too familiar with all of the combo box's properties.
I hope I'm making sense...

The problem is the new string entered into the combo box is not recognized, by the ".list" property.

Do Until Mid(InsertArray(i), 1, 2) <> "H0"

If MAIN_WIRE_SHAPE.Combo1.List(i) <> OffsetsNewArray(i) Then
InsertArray(i) = Replace(InsertArray(i), InsertArray(i), MAIN_WIRE_SHAPE.Combo1.List(i))
End If
i = i + 1

Loop

Well, I'm not sure what you are doing but it sounds like you are typing into the combo box and then looking for the typed entry in the list and of course it will not be there unless you write some code to add it to the list.

A combo box functions as a textbox and as a list box hence the combo.
If you allow the user to type into the combo something that is not in the list then you must add it to the list through code if you want it to appear in the list. using the .additem method.

If you just need to test what the user typed then you can use the text property of the combo box rather than the list(x) property
