Array to combo Box

[kpu]

What I'm trying to do is read a txt file that has line by line of data and put it in the combo box. What I think I have to do is use the file array like this one:

#include <file.au3>
Dim $aRecords,$xFile
$xFile = "list.txt"
If Not _FileReadToArray($xFile,$aRecords) Then
   MsgBox(4096,"Error", " Error reading log to Array     error:" & @error)
   Exit
EndIf
For $x = 1 to $aRecords[0]
    Msgbox(0,'Record:' & $x, $aRecords[$x])
Next

Then some how use the data it pulls from $aRecords[$x] to put in the combo box...??? Am I getting warm or WAY! off.

I understand how to put and read, the data when coding the Combo Box, but not how to fill it in from another source such as a file.

Any help would greatly be appreciated!

#include <file.au3>
Dim $aRecords,$xFile
$xFile = "list.txt"
If Not _FileReadToArray($xFile,$aRecords) Then
   MsgBox(4096,"Error", " Error reading log to Array     error:" & @error)
   Exit
EndIf
For $x = 1 to $aRecords[0]
    $ComboList=$comboList & $aRecords[$x] & "|"
Next
$ComboList=StringTrimRight($ComboList,1)

; build the rest of your GUI

$ComboBox1 = GUICtrlCreateCombo ("", 10,10)
GUICtrlSetData($ComboBox1,$ComboList)

Not tested, but I think that will work...

As a Side Note, you don't HAVE to put it into the array at all, you could just open the file, read it line by line and format the string for your combo box directly... and there are probably many more (and several of them will be more efficient) ways to do what your wanting to do.
