Save text box value to combo box column

[mflower]

Anyone knows how I can save a value in a text box into one of the columns in the combo box.
Example, I'll search for a record, and the record appears in the form, but when I type in a value in textbox A, and click a button, that value is saved in the combo box. I do not want the value to be saved to a table.
Please help.Thank you..

Hi There

First of all you need to set up your textboxA as an unbound text box so it is not bound to any fields in your table and doesnt get saved there.

When you click on your command button you need something like this in the On_Click Event.

cboMyComboBox.Additem(textboxA.text))

Hope this helps
