Alex,

Great information, thanks! I want to provide a checkmark beside only certain default records in the combobox, to show the user they don't need to look at them.

>Don't use a VFP6 combo for this (very old version, time to upgrade don't you think?). Use ImageCombo ActiveX Control (MSComCtl.ocx). Works fine with VFP and allows you to put pictures in all (or some) of the combo lines (records). I use it for example to display country flags for a Pick a Country combo.
