I have a combo, array based, displaycount initialised to 25.

At run time, the array is filled with a varying number of rows and I change display count to the length of the array.

The box opens with the correct number of entries but the user can still scroll down to 25 list rows.

How can I limit the user to just the number of rows in the array?

Good question Olaf! I use the combo repeatedly during each invocation of the form with a different number of rows in the array on each occasion. (The user selects a table and the combo shows the tags for that table, then another table etc etc)

I have to start somewhere and 25 seemed a good idea but any number would do (I tried 1).

Perhaps I will have to create and destroy the array property for each instance - would I have to set the .rowsource at the same time.

I would store a .f. first then re-diminsion to a 1 before repopulating...
 
Or you could just use a select statement into this array and have foxpro do all the work for you....

 
destroying and recreating the array is the sure way. redimensioning it to 1 would be sufficient I think.

Bye, Olaf.
