ComboBox Basics
I am learning on my own VB6 and have some basic questions:
Using a dropdown ComboBox I would like the commands as examples for the following:
Using a menuBox I would like the following in the simplist terms:
Add an item to the box
Remove an item
Clear the list
Print the list
Displaycount
Set alphabetically

Here's some good instructions for the above as well: http://www.vtc.com/products/vb6-advan.htm
Offhand (though I've never had a need) - I'd say set up a loop to gather all your combo items for printing...
For x = 0 To Combo1.ListCount - 1
strPrint = strPrint & vbCrLf & Combo1.List(x)
Next x
strPrint = Right(strPrint, Len(strPrint) - Len(vbCrLf))
printer.print strPrint
For x = 0 To Combo1.ListCount - 1
strPrint = strPrint & vbCrLf & Combo1.List(x)
Next x
strPrint = Right(strPrint, Len(strPrint) - Len(vbCrLf))
printer.print strPrint

gonzal13 - are you saying that your questions weren't answered?
I think I've answered most, if not all of them and see no reason why there should be a refund...

I did not refer to the notes for this question. On Thursday, I went to see the professor. Thus, I feel that since I did not refer to this site I should geet a rfund of points.
Here is the final code. It a complete working code and more detailed then you provided.
