No, but apparently you have. The answer he gave you is a little sparse, but essentially correct. You can position the ComboBox anywhere on the form using its
LeftandTopproperties, or both at once using itsLocationproperty. If the ComboBox is behind another control, you can bring it to the top by calling itsBringToFrontmethod. You might also have to set itsVisibleproperty to True you already have this ComboBox on the form and are hiding it. If not, you'll have to create the ComboBox dynamically, you can, but you also have to add it to the form'sControlscollection and wire up any events that you want to handle by hand, usingAddHandlerandRemoveHandler.

Well you act like it. :sigh: ...Steve quod erat demonstrandum "Give a man a fish and you've fed him for a day. Teach him how to fish and you've fed him for life." (Translation: I'll show you the way, but not write the code for you.) I read that somewhere once :-)

Like Steve said, you're acting like one. On top of that, you're asking questions on the level of one too. Maybe if you included a bit more detail about exactly what you're having a problem with, you wouldn't get the "shotgun" answer that covers all the basics.

This will return the position of any character, relative to the top-left corner of the RTB window. You'll have to do a little math to get the position of where you should position your listbox relative to the top-left corner of the Form.
