Hi all,

Can someone tell me, how to show two columns in a combo box?
Please help!

As far as I know, It's not possible. [May be some API with subclassing that could do it, but then I'd think it'd resemble a listbox more than a combo box.]

You could always create your own custom control, or just put two combo boxes one for the first col, one second.

Thanks JL. You saved my time.

Bye the way, can you please tell me how to add 4 colums in a list box and add data into it?

Me.List1.Columns = 4
Me.List1.AddItem rst![name], 0

but how can i write to the second column. Please help.

As far as I know, it too isn't possible (directly, like by an option). The only way to on pursose put it in a different column is to add a "blank" in the list (add " "). Then you'd have to test for your "blank" spot since the control assumes it to be a valid entry.

It only uses the columns if the items in the list couldn't be shown without a vertical scroll bar.

IE: If you have a listbox, 4 items tall with 8 items, for 1 col, it'd have a list with a scrollbar. 2 cols, it'd have two columns with 4 per col.

Offhand, you may have better use from a Grid (Flex grid), it'd allow you to put info into any column you want, although it may not be feasible in your situation.

Thanks a lot JL for all of ur help. You are so helpful.

Thanks
