how can you add an item in a combo box without using the property window,, i tried using the items.add but there's an error and I forgot what it is..
here's the code i'm trying to do:

dim shift as integer
shift = cboShift.selectedindex

select shift
case 0
cboLocation.items.add="a"
cboLocation.items.add="b"
cboLocation.items.add="c"
case 1
cboLocation.items.add="A"
cboLocation.items.add="B"
cboLocation.items.add="C"
end select

is it correct???? thankyou for the help in advance

   cboLocation.items.add="B"
   cboLocation.items.add="C"
end select

Please post your code examples using tags:

//'cboLocation.items.add="a"
   cboLocation.Items.Add("a")

See ComboBox.Items Property

You should use

cboLocation.Items.Add("a")

instead of

cboLocation.Items.Add="a"

And it should be Select Case instead of just Select.

Dim intCat As Integer
intCat = cboCat.SelectedIndex

Select Case intCat
Case 0
cboLoc.Items.Add("Angeles")
cboLoc.Items.Add("Mabalacat")
cboLoc.Items.Add("San Fernando")
Case 1
cboLoc.Items.Add("USA")
cboLoc.Items.Add("Canada")
cboLoc.Items.Add("London")
Case 2
cboLoc.Items.Add("Baguio")
cboLoc.Items.Add("Manila")
cboLoc.Items.Add("Palawan")
End Select


i have a problem with these,, i follow all what you've said but every time i click the cboCat,, my items in cboLoc are just adding up.. what will i do so my items in cboLoc are not adding everytime i click cboCat,,

You should add this at the beginning of every case selection if you want the CheckBox to be cleared and only then filled with other items:

		cboLoc.Items.Clear()
