Im a big college football fan. I was thinking about writing a database that
has all the division 1 football teams by conference. who they play,
statistics, etc. I was wanting to use a combo box to pick who was playing
who. 2 combo boxes then the date.

Question: I would love to put the team logo in the combo box next to the
team when I select the team. Can this be done. IF so, What would be the most
practical way of doing it.

Next Question: In a list box can I control the vertical Width of the
records in the columm. I know by selecting the font size it increases the
vertical width.

Thanks.

Not possible with the standard combobox. There might be an ActiveX control
you could buy that would do it.

What do you mean by vertical width? Vertical is height and horizontal is
width. Yes, you can control the height by changing the font size.

Not in the combo box, but you could display it in an image control next
to the combo box. If the logos are all stored in the same folder --
probably the same folder as the database, or a subfolder of that -- then
you can easily use the AfterUpdate event of the combo box to set the
Picture property of the image control to the path and file name of the
image file containing the logo.

I'm not sure what you mean by "vertical width", unless it's "height". I
don't think you can change the height of the individual rows without
changing the font size.
