oops! I meant to say I used the addobject() function.

Thats too bad as I am using vfp 5. Is there another way I can tell if the user changed the value in one of the dynamically created combo boxes? Basically, whenever the user selects a value I have to search through a table and take out any illegal values in the textbox below it.

Thanks,
