I'm doing a project for a class wherein the contents of an RAF are loaded into a combo box and edited, added to, deleted via additional textboxes (an instructor derived gerbil wheel). I'm having problems because the combo sorts but the index doesn't have relevance to the RAF, which is isn't sorted. I haven't yet, being a neophyte, figured out how to write code that will "Put" existing combo entries into the file in their sorted form. (Another problem is that the combo entry is a concatenated string that represents two facets of a data type in the file).

Syncing combo box index sort to a RAF
- Thread starter Quehay
- Start date
Not sure what a RAF is, but if you want to put the contents of a sorted combo box into a file, this will work:<br>
<br>
dim f as integer<br>
f = freefile<br>
open "myfile.txt" for output as #f<br>
for i = 0 to combo.listcount - 1<br>
print #f, combo.list(i)<br>
next<br>
close f <p>nick bulka<br><a href=mailto:nick@bulka.com>nick@bulka.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br>
<br>
dim f as integer<br>
f = freefile<br>
open "myfile.txt" for output as #f<br>
for i = 0 to combo.listcount - 1<br>
print #f, combo.list(i)<br>
next<br>
close f <p>nick bulka<br><a href=mailto:nick@bulka.com>nick@bulka.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br>
