umh...i think that the following should do the trick for you...if your combo is called COMBO1 then LIST CLEAR, COMBO1 should clear the combo

found an answer for you...add the style LIST to your combo and the combo will be treated as a list and the whole combo will be cleared with LIST CLEAR, BOX1

I remembered how to do it finally Serge  (updated this POST section). Using the LIST style was good, but I couldn't get Text in the Header area, so the below works both ways.
| Code: | DIALOG ADD,combo,box1,6,12,502,22,,,click,sorted
LIST clear, 1
dialog clear,box1
dialog set,box1,@item(1) <-- sets the control title
list append,area,@text(1) <-- Fills the drop down list
:clear-combo <able to clear the COMBO drop down list>
dialog clear,box1
dialog clear,area
list clear,area
|
This way you can get Text in the Header area, plus you can CLEAR it all when you want (full control of the controls)  - if you know what I mean.
Thanks for your help Serge  Aprreciate it...

vtol,
Why don't you just use this to remove everything from a combo box including the Text in the combo box's edit box?
| Code: | title TEST
%%CB_RESETCONTENT = $014B
DIALOG CREATE,TEST,-1,0,207,98
DIALOG ADD,BUTTON,BUTTON1,46,64,,,Delete All,,DEFAULT
DIALOG ADD,COMBO,COMBO1,10,10,,,Testit
DIALOG SHOW
list add,combo1,Visual
list add,combo1,DialogScript
:evloop
wait event
goto @event()
:BUTTON1BUTTON
rem Deletes everything from the combo box
%A = @sendmsg(@winexists(~COMBO1),%%CB_RESETCONTENT,0,0)
goto evloop
:CLOSE
exit
