Hi TP

Not exactly sure what your aiming for here but if you don't want the
user to be able to change the value of the combobox you could just set
it to be locked use code something like

ComboBox1.List = Array("", "blah", "BLah", "BLAH")
ComboBox1.ListIndex = 3
ComboBox1.Locked = True

will lock the combobox to show the value BLAH

hope this helps you out
