Combobox filled from database

[Bill Marriott]

Only on Mac. Windows shows a scrollbar for both.... So if you use the 
built-in controls you'll have to choose between the untidy screen 
presentation of a long list, or the potential for someone to enter arbitrary 
data into the box that is not part of the index.

Either way the two script lines I supplied will work.

You might consider building a custom control using parent scripts, which 
could solve both issues of the appearance and the indexing. (You could even 
implement keyboard support.)
