in the screen i have:  
a combobox (items are numbers) “mycombobox” (from Flash components)  
a dynamic text “mytext”  
and a button “enter data” (from Flash components)  
the button code:

```auto
on (press) {  
    if (mycombobox.getValue() == 28) { // items are numbers
       _root.mytext="crazy words"  
 }  
 }

```

so…  
thanks!
