in [MFC]

From: William Dauchy on 14 May 2008 05:38 Hello, I have a CComboBox. I wanted to modify the text of one entry. So I made: myCComboxBox.SetDlgItemText(mySel, "Some new text"); But nothing changed. What I missed? Regards, -- William

You may try to call CComboBox :: DeleteString to remove the old string, and InsertString to add the new one... BTW: CodeProject has a tutorial on Combo-boxes: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/combobox/combobox_tut.aspx Giovanni

Yup I know, but I was looking for a way to modify it... (because of the place in the list...) I will check this tuto. -- William

I think that to modify a string in a combo-box entry you should specify two parameters: the string position (index in combo-box), and the new string value. SetDlgItemText only gets string value as parameter, you can't specify the string index into combo-box. Giovanni |
