In my actual class I use addlistitem, and my keys are always integers. I was trying to remember from memory what I did. However, shouldn't it work if the combo is cleared and NewItemID is starting from 1?

Anyway, I find more and more that building your own combo boxes with the rowtype of 0 is much more convenient for a variety of reasons.
