Sorry, I was unclear.
I assumed that John wanted to limit the choice to the items in the list. 
If the combobox.ReadOnly (?) property is not set then the user can type 
anything into the text area and tab to the next control. Thus the 
combobox.Text property could return "The Underwear Channel" or whatever 
the user types or pastes in.
