The following example uses a ComboBox to show the picture placement options for a control. Each time the user clicks a list choice, the picture and caption are updated on the CommandButton. This code sample also uses the AddItem method to populate the ComboBox choices.
To use this example, copy this sample code to the Script Editor of a form. To run the code you need to open the form so the Open event will activate. Make sure that the form contains:
Dim Label1
Dim CommandButton1
Dim ComboBox1
Sub Item_Open()
Set Label1 = Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages("P.2").Label1
Set CommandButton1 = Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages("P.2").CommandButton1
Set ComboBox1 = Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages("P.2").ComboBox1
Label1.Left = 18
Label1.Top = 12
Label1.Height = 12
Label1.Width = 190
Label1.Caption = "Select picture placement relative to the caption."
'Add list entries to combo box. The value of each entry matches the
'corresponding ListIndex value in the combo box.
ComboBox1.AddItem "Left Top" 'ListIndex = 0
ComboBox1.AddItem "Left Center" 'ListIndex = 1
ComboBox1.AddItem "Left Bottom" 'ListIndex = 2
ComboBox1.AddItem "Right Top" 'ListIndex = 3
ComboBox1.AddItem "Right Center" 'ListIndex = 4
ComboBox1.AddItem "Right Bottom" 'ListIndex = 5
ComboBox1.AddItem "Above Left" 'ListIndex = 6
ComboBox1.AddItem "Above Center" 'ListIndex = 7
ComboBox1.AddItem "Above Right" 'ListIndex = 8
ComboBox1.AddItem "Below Left" 'ListIndex = 9
ComboBox1.AddItem "Below Center" 'ListIndex = 10
ComboBox1.AddItem "Below Right" 'ListIndex = 11
ComboBox1.AddItem "Centered" 'ListIndex = 12
ComboBox1.Style = 2 'Use drop-down list
ComboBox1.BoundColumn = 0 'Combo box values are ListIndex values
ComboBox1.ListIndex = 0 'Set combo box to first entry
ComboBox1.Left = 18
ComboBox1.Top = 36
ComboBox1.Width = 90
ComboBox1.ListWidth = 90
'Initialize CommandButton1
CommandButton1.Left = 230
CommandButton1.Top = 36
CommandButton1.Height = 120
CommandButton1.Width = 120
'Note: Be sure to refer to have set the CommandButton1 to a bitmap file
'Note: that is present on your system
CommandButton1.PicturePosition = ComboBox1.Value
End Sub
Sub ComboBox1_Click()
Select Case ComboBox1.Value
Case 0 'Left Top
CommandButton1.Caption = "Left Top"
