<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>surely any script attached to the combo responses is executed? Thos responses match when the combo changes. Then you can use rsID.value (is is value? I'm never sure), but you can grab the selections in script in the responses for the combos...?</FONT></DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; COLOR: #1f497d; FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'">Xerte’s native combo. I don’t have Flash (maybe a bit of dash, tho). Using an rs of combo1, I tried Selection.setSelection(combo1); and Selection.setSelection(“combo1”);, but neither seem to work. I also tried using the id of the interaction. </SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; COLOR: #1f497d; FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'">Maybe something further down is stealing focus. I have, at this point, 3 combos; all on separate interactions; all set to be perpetual. This is followed by script icons to style the combos to match my screen shot (an almost perfect match!). And that is followed by an interaction with several event responses that listen for onKillFocus to grab the selections. Is there an event that fires when a selection is made? I would rather not have to have the user Tab or click out of the field before it changes the list items in the next combo. </SPAN></P>

<P><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'">I’m working on a software simulation</SPAN> <SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'">in Xerte</SPAN> <SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'">using screen shots from our program, and layering Flash</SPAN> <SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'">combobox controls on top.
