While you can't distribute Forms 2.0, it doesn't require Office, and it doesn't mean your distributed app can't use it.

But, I'd agree, a Forms 2.0 combo box is not the way to go. The standard VB combo box should work, even if you need something in the back end to help out with your goal, like an array (as dglienna suggested).
