BUT you said you don't want to use datalinking (i.e. datasource). So HOW
would you use a non-datalinked ib_combobox to operate on the table, without
any datalinking? Or, more to the point, what advantage would a
non-datalinked ib_combobox have over an ordinary Tcombobox with a mapped
stringlist or, better, your own TCombobox derivative, enhanced to behave
just the way you want?

I'm going to ignore this thread from now on. I don't see any relevance to
IBO at all...
