The ComboBox object corresponds to the ComboBox control in a user dialog box. You use the ComboBox object to define a selection list that displays in the dialog box. The list drops down when you click the box. You specify which selection terms are displayed and the return values by clicking ListItems on the Properties tab.

Note  The EnumComboBox control has similar properties. Use a dynamic enumeration list variable or an enumeration variable to specify the selection terms for the control.

The following example selects the second selection term in the ComboBox1 selection list:

Copy script

ComboBox1.Selection = 2
