Combo Box problems again

[KJT]

This is my first time creating Combo Boxes in Word 2003. I have about 30
combo boxes created in a document. I am able to select an item in the combo
box if I type the first letter of the item. I am not able to select an item
by clicking on the item with my mouse. Do I have something set wrong on the
properties?

Why again? Jezebel already answered your "Problem with Combo Box".

Jezebel assumed you were talking about Combo Boxes on User Forms, rather
than in the document.
The problem is the same though.

Why do you need to fill the combo boxes again and again? Should be enough to
do it once at design time?
If you need to do it dynamically, maybe ComboBox1_GotFocus() might be a
better place, and you could check if you really need to (re)fill the combo
box before you clobber the content with .Clear

I haven't much experience with combo boxes in documents, though.
Hope somebody will correct me if I'm wrong.
