End of list in ComboBox

[dfg]

Hello again. Thanks for everyones help btw. Just one more question.

I have a combo box with 10 items in it. I would like to write these
items to a sequential file. I was thinking i could just loop through
the items and write them to the file like so:

Do While Not EOF(1)
Input #1, cboVehicle.List
Loop

But I can't use EOF (of course) because it's not a file, it's a
combobox. Is there some way to determine when I hit the the last item
in the list, or when the last item has been written to the file?

Thanks.

If you're working with a list of known size, use For/Next. When
you don't know how many iterations will be needed, then use Do/Loop

For i = 0 to Combo1.ListCoun t - 1
Print #1, Combo1.List(i)
Next
