cannot detect if there is only 1 element in combo box?

Question

I have an array of strings to set them into the combo box, a drop down combo box. I will select an element in the drop down combo box and press the button "delete". It will delete the element from the combo box. but when I come to the last combo box, im unable to delete it off because it does not get pass this line....

myEntries.selectedItem.label == myArray

why does myEntries.selectedItem.label isnt being detected in the last element?

Entries.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, EntriesChange)
               }
          }

          var str_entries:String="";
          //set default
          function EntriesChange(e:Event):void{
               for(var i=0;i<myArray.length;i++)
               {
                    if (myEntries.selectedItem.label == myArray){
                         str_entries = myArray;
                         trace("str_entries="+str_entries)
                    }
               }
          }

You can't able to remove the 0th index, the below code does the trick:

delbtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,delfn);
function delfn(e:MouseEvent):void{
    var str:String=String(Entries.selectedItem.label).toLowerCase();
    for(var i=0;i<myArray.length;i++){
        var str1:String=String(myArray).toLowerCase();
        if (str == str1){
        Entries.removeItem(Entries.selectedItem);
        if (Entries.length==0) Entries.removeAll();
        str_entries = myArray;
    }
    }
}
