No.  Not in a "SORTED" list.  It is in instances such as this that I use a
Hidden ListBox.  You can add the Items to the Hidden Listbox, check for the
Item, SaveToFile, then LoadFromFile to the ComboBox "SORTED".  It all happens
very quick, so the workaround isn't something the user is aware of.

The Alternative is to iterate through the ComboBox, 0 to ListCount -1 and check
for the value of the text at that ItemIndex..
