hello there,

i’m trying to add some action to the combo box i grabbed from the components on Flash CS3.

here is the code that i have so far

```auto

import fl.data.DataProvider;
import fl.events.ComponentEvent;

var items:Array = [
{label:"Arizona", data:"87.97"},
{label:"Colorado", data:"91.97"},
{label:"Iowa", data:"91.97"},
{label:"Idaho", data:"91.97"},
{label:"North Dakota", data:"91.97"},
{label:"New Mexico", data:"91.97"},
{label:"South Dakota", data:"91.97"},
{label:"Wyoming", data:"91.97"},
{label:"Minnessota", data:"91.97"},
{label:"Montana", data:"87.97"},
{label:"Nebraska", data:"87.97"},
{label:"Oregon", data:"87.97"},
{label:"Utah", data:"87.97"},
{label:"Minnessota", data:"87.97"},
{label:"Washington", data:"91.97"},
];

aCb.dataProvider = new DataProvider(items);
 
aCb.addEventListener(ComponentEvent.ENTER, onAddItem);
  
function onAddItem(event:ComponentEvent):void {
    var newRow:int = 0;
    if (event.target.text == "Add") {
        newRow = event.target.length + 1;
         event.target.addItemAt({label:"screen" + newRow, data:"screenData" + newRow}, 
            event.target.length); 
    }
}

```

the combo box instance name is aCb and i have a dynamic text called priceText, so i would like to select a state from the array list and my data to be shown on the dynamic text. any help with this please. thank you!
