Hi,

I load an XCB file which has a toolbar with a combobox.

How do I add items to this combobox in vb code?

Take a look at DynamicPopups sample. CommandBars_InitCommandsPopup procedure. Use AddItem method of CommandBarComboBox object. You may have to use .FindControl method of CommandBars to find your CommandBarComboBox object.

Set ControlComboBox = CommandBar.FindControl(, Id, , True)

ControlComboBox.AddItem itemText

Good luck

Thanks, but in this case the items are only added when someone clicks on the combobox?

I need to add items (in this case cd devices) into the combobox without any user interaction, and the first item (device) should be displayed.

Right,

So in form_load or whatever:

Dim ControlComboBox as CommandBarComboBox

Set ControlComboBox = CommandBar.FindControl(,Id,,True)

If not ControlComboBox is nothing then

ContgrolComboBox.AddItem itemText

End if

Something like that.
