  • can't add to combobox

    something wierd is happening, I'm sure it's me....
    I was trying to populate a combobox, and I can't get any items to show up.
    I did a simple comboBox example program, and there should be 30 "test items" in it, but there are none.
    What am I doing wrong? This is straight from pbForms:

    Code:
    #PBFORMS CREATED V1.51
    '------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    ' The first line in this file is a PB/Forms metastatement.
    ' It should ALWAYS be the first line of the file. Other   
    ' PB/Forms metastatements are placed at the beginning and 
    ' end of "Named Blocks" of code that should be edited     
    ' with PBForms only. Do not manually edit or delete these 
    ' metastatements or PB/Forms will not be able to reread   
    ' the file correctly.  See the PB/Forms documentation for 
    ' more information.                                       
    ' Named blocks begin like this:    #PBFORMS BEGIN ...     
    ' Named blocks end like this:      #PBFORMS END ...       
    ' Other PB/Forms metastatements such as:                  
    '     #PBFORMS DECLARATIONS                               
    ' are used by PB/Forms to insert additional code.         
    ' Feel free to make changes anywhere else in the file.

    nevermind, I've done this before: the comboBox was too small... geesh! The first sign of madness!
