>I have a combo box in a container. The RecordSource for this combo box is an array. To populate this array, in the INIT method of the combobox calls a method of the container. But it bombs there because the method of the container relies on a property set in the INIT method of the container (which has not fired yet). So I have to reconsider the entire sequence of how to populate this array.
In a specific instance, you could of course populate the ComboBox from the Container.Init(). If you want a more generic solution (for any ComboBox placed in this kind of Container)... well, I don't know. Perhaps the Container could check whether it contains this specific type of ComboBox.
