Combo box not populating when swf is loaded within another swf 1

[TALU]

I have a form sylte swf, with combo boxes that populate no problem when run, but i'm trying to load it within another swf movie, and then only the first entry shows, althought the drop down is the correct lenght for the contained items, it is blank appart from the first entry.

Any Ideas

Its an old project that i abandoned due to this problem, but i really need to get it working soon.

humor me for a moment and replace the combo with a list box

does that work?

Yep the List box works

Could swap over, but would be nice to use the combo if i can.

Populating using "addItemAt" if that helps

you have duplicated a problem i once had with a swf and could never replicate....on that occassion i gave up and used the list box

thing is you can populate a test combo in one swf import it into another and it works fine so i just never did get to the bottom of that one.

sorry for the negative answer

The combo does not work in any of the forms i had created, ten in total, might try loading them in a new parent movie to see if i can get it to work.

For now, I geuss the list box will have to do!

Cheers for the prompt reply.

If I solve it, i will post the resolotion, but it gave me hours of head aches a few months ago when i was initially working on it. Tried almost everything!

Anyone else encountered this?
