refreshing/resetting a combo box

Scripting Forums AppleScript Studio & Xcode
#1

I’ve got a combo box that provides a list of items on a window with an “Add” button and a data table. When the user clicks on the add button I want to have the data table updated to add the value from the combo box into the next row. Then I want the combo box to reset itself to display the first item (blank) of its values.

I’ve got everything working fine except for the combo box resetting itself to the first value of its list. I’ve tried

		set current item of combo box "importColumnName" of window "mainWindow" to 0
	
		update combo box "importColumnName" of window "mainWindow"

and

		set current item of combo box "importColumnName" of window "mainWindow" to 0
		
		tell combo box "importColumnName" of window "mainWindow" to update

Does anyone know how I can get the combo box to refresh itself and display the initial value?

Thanks,
Jack

In AppleScript the first item is always 1 not 0

Hi jackinva

try

set current menu item of popup button “name of your button” to first menu item of popup button “name of your button”
