API - alphabetically sorted and editable combobox for my PropertyManagerPage??!!

Hi,

Can someone please help me understand the combobox function for the
PropertyManagerPage...

I would like to have the combobox editable and the text sorted
alphabetically... acc. to SWX API help one should use the enumerations
specified in the swconst.bas file, where it says

Public Enum swPropMgrPageComboBoxStyle_e
swPropMgrPageComboBoxStyle_Sorted = &H1
swPropMgrPageComboBoxStyle_EditableText = &H2
End Enum


Therefore I'm now (without any luck) trying this code before showing my
PropertyManagerPage

pComboBoxDrawnBy.Style = swPropMgrPageComboBoxStyle_Sorted
pComboBoxDrawnBy.Style = swPropMgrPageComboBoxStyle_EditableText
pPropertyManagerPage.Show

I managed to get the alphabetical sorting right and the combobox is in fact
editable but for some reason editing the combobox won't call the
function/sub PropertyManagerPage2Handler_OnComboboxEditChanged as the SWX
API help says it will....

Private Sub PropertyManagerPage2Handler_OnComboboxEditChanged(ByVal ID As
Long, ByVal Text As String)
Select Case ID
Case DrawnBy
MsgBox Text
End Select
End Sub


I'm stuck with this problem and at this point all the "work-arounds" I can
think of are both difficult and "ugly"....

Ideas someone??!!...

TIA,

KimSky

 

Public Enum swPropMgrPageComboBoxStyle_e

Again, this swPropMgrPageComboBoxStyle_e is a bitmask (you can recognise it
from &H (hex) and from the values (1, 2, 4, 8, etc.), and it is always
mentioned in SW Api help). You have to either add the values together or use
bitwise Or operator to make the flags work together:

swPropMgrPageComboBoxStyle_EditableText

Hope this helps!
