Syntax:

CBGET dlg_id id

dlg_id Specifies the identifier of the dialog box that contains the combo box.

id Specifies the identifier of the combo box.

Note:

The index returned is zero based, that is, the first string in the list box of a combo box is at index 0, the second string is at index 1 and so on.
