How do you restrict the user to select only values listed in the combobox?
(ie. not be allowed to key in his own values)

After that, instead of using the value, as written in the combobox, and
assign it to a variable, I'd like to assign the index number instead. (ie.
choice number 1, 2, etc)

Thanks for the help
