Is there any way to add a combo box with different items to each row in the report control? I am trying to use the EditOptions object in the ReportRecordItem class but it does not seem to exist on the ReportRecordItem. Here is an example of the code that I am writing:
Dim oRecord As ReportRecord
Dim oItem As ReportRecordItem
Set oRecord = moFormApp.rptWorkflowData.Records.Add()
Set oItem = oRecord.AddItem(vbNullString)
Call oItem.EditOptions.Constraints.Add("first item", 1)
-> results in error: "Object variable or With block variable not set"
If I try to set the create a new ReportRecordItemEditOptions object I also receive an error.
Set oItem.EditOptions = New ReportRecordItemEditOptions
-> results in error: "ActiveX component can't create object"

Before accessing EditOptions property for an item you should call CreateEditOptions -- it initializes further customization. Then access it as regular EditOptions property.

Thank you for the tip, I am now able to load the combo boxes exactly how I want. My problem now is that the text doesn't change when I select a new value from the combo box. I would also like to be able to add logic to the event that occurs when this value is changed.

Text should change correctly, looks like the problem somewhere in your code. There should be something like:
Item.CreateEditOptions
Item.EditOptions.Constraints.Add "blablabla", someValue
...
Item.EditOptions.ConstraintEdit = True
Item.EditOptions.AddComboButton

Look at ValueChanged event.
In general, look at standard ReportSample application, TaskList form (menu Test / Task List sample). It shows how to handle all those things.

I found out that the value was changing but the caption wasn't. Thanks again for your help.
