<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Ive tried this but it doesn't seem to
work</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial
size=2>PostMessage(ComboBox1.Handle,WM_SETTEXT,0,Integer(pChar('XXX')));<BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Is this correct? It doesn't
work.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm doing this in the OnChange event for the
ComboBox. Setting the Text property directly doesn't work in this event
because it occurs before the change rather than after it.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Would I need to use a Timer?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I want to update the Text property of a TComboBox
using PostMessage, so it's delayed until after the current procedure
finishes. Can someone help me out with a piece of code.</FONT></DIV>
