Thanks John, I currently am using a 'prompt' on my combobox as well. I'm making my changes on a handler listening to the close event.
Here's perhaps a more detailed explanation of my problem from another previous email.
Hopefully this question has a simple answer, though i haven't found one yet. When switching a combobox from editable == true to false, if the text was previously selected while editable == true, the selection is maintained when editable = false. Basically i want to remove the selection. Something like; combobox_instance.editable = false; combobox_instance.'?currentTextField?'.setSelection(0,0); btw, this is not within a subclass of combobox.

Try setting the combobox.selectedIndex to -1 to make it use the prompt value. I set prompt= "" , then when I set combobox.selectedIndex to -1, it clears the field.
