Hi,

How do I change the text in the ComboBox from Capital to non-capital?

The ComboBox is filled on Form_Load()

Do Until rs.EOF
Combo1.AddItem rs!TEST
rs.MoveNext
Loop

Look into the LCase() and UCase() functions.
Code:
...
Combo1.AddItem LCase(rs!TEST)
...

You could use the LCase function

Code:
Do Until rs.EOF
   Combo1.AddItem lcase(rs!TEST)
   rs.MoveNext
Loop
 
Thanks guys. Works fine.

One question remains. How do I make onlythe first letter Capital and the rest LCase?

Greetings J. Radjesh Klauke (Netherlands)
 
Code:
Combo1.AddItem UCase(Left(rs!TEST, 1)) & LCase(Right(rs!TEXT, Len(rs!TEXT)-1))

Tracy,

An easier way to convert to Proper case would be to use:
Code:
Combo1.AddItem StrConv(rs!TEST, vbProperCase)
Cheers

The code of HarleyQuinn works fast. But both of you deserve a shiny. Thank you both for the effort.
