Combo Box Question

[Shanachie]

I want to have a combo box that can have values that are not on its list. The list (read into an array at startup) shows current account reps. When someone leaves the company, existing orders should retain their name though it will no longer be in the list. The combo box currently is blank in that case.

I could have the combo box change a text variable's value, displayed in a separate text box but that feels clumsy.

Any quick suggestions?

TIA

If you add an item with a "\"... it will disable the item in the list..? That might work

DIMENSION aEmployees[2]
aEmployees[1] = "Current Employee"
aEmployees[2] = &quot;\Former Employee&quot; <- Displayed but disabled..

Are your reps stored in a table? Or are you devining the list by query? Depending on how your data is configured, you might consider having a table listing current reps with status field to filter by... I have an app that also tracks reps sales performance in this way.
