Dave,
I am currently using a for loop, but I wanted to change it to a foreach (reason unknown <s>).

I thought the items collection stored the type of whatever I put in there, but that didn't work. Looking closer at it after reading your reply it seems like i have several int32 items in my combo and one string item and that is why it didn't work for me.

Thanks for the reply.
