This is version 1.2 of Pensacola Christian College's freeware ComboBox
external area for 4th Dimension. The following changes have been made
since the 1.1.1 release:

o Enabled the Paste menu item when appropriate.

o Made sure that the selected item in the list box always stays in sync
with the text in the editable area.

o Closed the list box window on the first idle event after the layout
window is moved.

o Used the black & white PICT resource for the popup-indicator button
on display devices having four (4) or fewer colors.

o Eliminated the last vestiges of the dead scroll bar problem.

o Allowed string arrays to be used for CB_FillLst() rather than requiring
all arrays to be of type text.

o Added CB_GetContRef() function to make ComboBox compatible with
Foresight Technology's "Container" and Automated Solutions Group's
"Habitat."

o Added DrawBox flag to CB_DefSetFlags() and CB_SetFlags().

o Made the list window show up in the right place (above vs. below the
area) even on monitors other than the main monitor.

o Started using the real arrow cursor.

o Corrected a bug in which a compiled database would execute the
ComboBox's script twice when a button was clicked, considering it
unmodified both times.

o Fixed a bug where the text-entry area did not reflect the new size
after the font was changed.
