I don't think that addTableItems function does anything. It creates a temporary table called tableitems with only 2 elements: 1,itemnum and 2,itemdes, and then destroys it.

try something like this:

No gaps so I'll try the loop to add the values.
Once the values are in the table, do you use similar code to "get the value selcted" to change a byte value.

Could this be used in a drop combobox?

AND can comboboxes be nested, ie
the first drop down would display an item place(1- Cool

, then the second would displays the items(0-127)?

Will the quotation marks present any provblems?

Thanks

Not sure, but you just need to get the itemindex of a combobox and look that up in a table. The table can contain any data

You can enable and update the second combobox after selecting an item from the first combobox

And quotes do not matter

The code was added as you suggested

That is because the table is still empty at the time you fill the combobox

I just noticed that you have been using { } to give parameters while you should give ( )

In all the addTableItems calls replace { with ( and } with )

Yes as I thought tables needed those braces, my stupidity.
Anyway using the above code with brackets in place, now combobox has about 128 #1's nothing else and no item associated with the 1's.
I have the following in TStrings: Num, Itm if that makes a difference
I tried this:
for x = 0, 127 do
print(tableitems[x], x)
end
And got 128 1's no itemdes associated with 1

In the table definition should there be a "subitem" to describe the itemdes?

Did you take into account wiccaans comment? Change itemdex to itemdes

I have an example .ct here (execute the lua script)

That worked perfectly. The itemnum doesn't show and that is ok, but I need to select that number to insert into an inventory byte.

itemnumber = combobox_getItemIndex(CheatPanel_CEComboBox1)
print(itemnumber)

I keep getting -1 when the drop down arrow is selected.

AutoDropDown
AutoSelect both set to false

EDIT:
If an item is highlighted then the drop down arrow is selected the proper indexnum is printed. I changed the AutoSelect to true, but that didn't help the -1

make sure the style property of the dropdownlist is set to "csDropDownList" so it can't be edited by the keyboard but only selected

It is already. This what the output looks like and the properties.
Notice the -1's. After an item is selected nothing prints, but selecting the same item one or more times prints the index number.

I have no idea how your events are setup, but use the onChange event (not onclick as that happens before selection)

and make sure that when you populate the list onchange isn't handled
