I have added a drop down list to a dialog based application, created through appwizard, but cannot get the list to show when the drop down arrow is selected. The drop down list was entered through the data tab of the combobox properties. The type of box was changed to "Drop List", with sort and vertical scroll. Thanks for any help.

Can you not see any values, or will the drop down list not appear?
If the drop down list doesn't appear then the "area" of the combo box has not been defined, this is the section that defines the size of the drop down list, you need to set this when you create the control. I think if you click on the side of the control you enter this mode? Check help if you cant get it to work, I cant remember exactly.
