Hi,

I am trying to populate a Combobox using Data from an external file. I had
expected to be able to use something like:

Sub Item_Open()
    Dim CBActivity
    Dim inActivity
      Set CBActivity = Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages("P.2").Activity
  Open "DataFile.txt" For Input As #1
        Do While Not EOF(1)
            Input #1, inActivity
            CBActivity.AddItem inActivity
        Loop
  Close #1
     Set CBActivity = Nothing
End Sub

However I now understand that basic file i/o is not available under
VBScript. Is there another way to do this?

Any Help would be much appreciated...
