    cbo upredictable behavior

    Hi....
    I have several comboboxs on my form... all of them with style property 2 - DropDownList. I read in MSDN Library that when that was the case the text property was read-only. However, on most of the cbo's I can set the text property when the form loads. But on two of them I cannot. Has anyone else experience anything similar? Or does anyone know the reason why?

    Thanks.

    The text can be set, but what you set it to MUST be in the list.
