Ordering entries in a combo box
« on: March 02, 2010, 06:49:28 AM »
I have a combobox that I've populated with the names of all the layers in the drawing. In the dropdown list the layers are not ordered.

Is there a way to order the layer names alphabetically?

Thanks

I don't think so. In the past I've sorted the list before populating the combobox.

Thanks Matt,

The link was the answer. The sort had to be modified a little but it now sorts all the layer names in alphabetical order.

If anybody is interested I can post the final version.
