Ask specific questions about ListBoxes and ComboBoxes and we will try to answer them.

However, try searching the forum first because I bet you have probably asked the exact same questions twenty times before in the past 10 years.

Paul,

I don't find any examples of the ListBox and ComboBox here on the forum. I have search in the whole forum. How can I do:

Adding items (Listbox / comboBox)
Inserting Items (ListBox / comboBox)
Deleting Items (ListBox / ComboBox)
Find Strings / items (ListBox / ComboBox)

I have the very interesting book but the examples are in C++

Kind regards

FF_ListBox_AddString
FF_ListBox_DeleteString
FF_ListBox_FindString

....there are many others but the ones listed above will do everything you have asked for.

I own that book as well. It is a great resource. If you can understand everything in that book then programming in Windows will be no problem.
