To sokve the problem by defining a new form property and using that as the row source. There was was some comflick between variable names and my property which I do not have the time to figure out right now.

Thanks for your help.

>Compare the properties of your combobox with the properties of the combobox in the example I gave you. Does the array (used for the combobox) exist with both columns and does each item in the array have a value?

>>What I did was use your code in the init method of a form (crated several form properties and a form method). Because I want to want the combo box to initially have a blank I on set it rowsource (rowsource is 5). My problem is that it only displays the drive letters, i.e. A;\, C:\ but not the type of drive or if it is a nework drive.
