Hi,
I want that the list of options will be showed as combobox.
The use if for example to select the currency by name, but in the database
the currency is stored as one number, or select one category name but in the
database is stored as number.
I think that can store as custom property the

Hi John,
I'm assuming the following things are true:
* everyone is using Windows, or at least all the kids
* all the computers have access to the same shared hard disk,
whether it's a file server or one person's computer.
* there's a 'GoodLinks' folder on the shared disk where
The predefined options of a combo box =
the text of btn combo
The currently specified value of a combo box =
the label of btn combo
Please note that a combo box by definition allows the specification of
values that are not pre-defined, and would seem to be a poor choice for an
indexed value
Why was it less than satisfactory?
Just a wild guess here that if you cannot send email, your ISP (Orange) is
blocking port 25 and you should instead use 587.
I noted, though, that the mail hosting was less than satisfactory
