TComboBox 1

[Northbikerjr]

Is there any way to programmically change the first item in the combo list to have an index of 1 instead of zero? If so, can you give me an example. I have tried the insert function and I have tried the move function, but these do not do what I need them to do.

Any help is appreciated.

You could add a dummy field at the beginning, eg a blank one or a 'please select a ...', before you add your data items.

You can also set the MyCombo.ItemIndex := 1, in the Form.OnShow event - check that MyCombo.items.count > 1 before you do that or an exception could occur if it's empty.
