Combo Box Component issue - when loaded stops working

programming flash
1

I made a swf with a combo box and loaded some info in it like this:


noteTypeCB.addItem("My Item1");
noteTypeCB.addItem("My Item2");
noteTypeCB.addItem("My Item3");
noteTypeCB.addItem("My Item4");

Then I used a load movie to load it into my main movie and when I click on the arrow to view the connents it just highlights the whole box but it does not drop down; any idea?

EDIT: I found this thread; wanted to see if anyone else found that you have to also place the combobox item in the _root FLA:
