Combobox and data help needed

How do I make the selected label and data in my combobox appear in a dynamic text box in macromedia flash 8? help me please thanks.

This is the code I copied from your post:

_root.onEnterFrame = function() {

mr.text = String(person.selectedItem.label);

};

I'm not sure where you are with things, but for whatever version of Flash you are using, and whatever version of Actionscript your file is set to use, you should look up the ComboBox component in the help documents and go thru the propertties and methods that support it. YOu are likely to find examples there that you can experiment with and get working for you. That what I did before I answered your posting.

The combo box has a selectedItem property that you can use... yourTextField.text = String(cbName.selectItem.label) +" "+ String(cbName.selectItem.data)
