I eventually threw away the AS2 ComboBox because it was so buggy.

However, some problems can be cured by:
- Making sure there's a ComboBox instance in the top-level SWF (i.e.
the SWF that is doing the loading); even if it's off-stage somewhere
(or in a library symbol, as long as that library symbol is set to
export in frame 1).
- Using _lockroot=true on the loaded clip.

HTH,
