I want to use a combobox for two purposes. On is fro choosing an option from a file, and the other is, if the user's option isn't in the file, they can type the otion into the 'textbox' part of the combo, and I can take care of adding it to the file in the lostfocus event. Problem is that either the first record value sits in that box and it will not take input, or it acts as a search box, and if you type the first letter of one of the records in the file, it pops that value into the box. I have tried as many combinations of controlsource, rowsource and rowsourcetype as there are, and nothing works. Any ideas will me greatly appreciated! I have always just used a combobox as somethign to select from, but I am trying to avoid a separate 'add another option to the file' screen, if at all possible, but taking care of adding new options via the combobox.
