Combo Box Question

Well to start things off on this forum I have the honor of posting the first question.

My question is about the Combo Box control.

I create a dynamic array, CTRLS, with all the names of my controls at the top of the program. I also create a corresponding dynamic array, called VALS, to contain all the values of the controls. I find this to be a useful practice. After I read my record in from the database, I load the values into the VALS array and use ATGUILOADVALUES before the form displays.

My Question is: For a Combo Box, I already know the value of edit part of the control when I read from the database and have assigned it to my values dynamic array using, VALS<X> = FIELD.FROM.DATABASE, my question is, how would I assign the list items to VALS array so when I do my ATGUILOADVALUES both the edit control and the drop down list have values?

Hope someone has some good suggestions on this, or maybe I'll have to hack out the answer for myself and reply to my own post for the benefit of others.

Thanks,

Pete,

Does this mean that I can't use ATGUILOADVALUES to do it all in one shot? Just curious. I can do it the way you suggested.

Thanks for the help,
