ComboBox Values

[dch3]

Is there a way to specific values to appear in a ComBox's properties sheet or
does it have to be done via code?

Are you really trying to add some choices to a combobox? You can do this in the
initial values of the combobox. Take a look at the following page:

Yes. Its just two values - TEN and CONF. I can't seem to find documentation
explaining how to do that as in which properties and the format. I tried the
format used in Access as in "TEN";"CONF" which didn't work.

Is the combo box bound to an Outlook property?

Let me clarify that - It will be bound to a user-defined field.

A user-defined field is an Outlook property. In that case, you can enter the values for the list in the Possible Values property of the control's Value tab, separated by semi-colons: TEN;CONF

information in Help.
