thanks alot for your help

still wont seem to work though >_<

maybe its because its the wrong event but i tried click and change and nothing also i changed the type of the combo so that it can not be edited i think thats why i cant get the .text property to work because its like a normal list box selection (which i dont know how to get the text from either)

any ideas

thanks alot

Ooble

Make sure they're in the correct case as well.
