combobox in a movieclip?!

[davecates]

hi,
I'm trying to add a combo box to a movieclip - all done at runtime using only actionscript - no components dragged onto the stage.
I have tried all the possible ideas in the world and still I can't see my combo box!! I have a combobox in the library but not on the stage.

Here's my code:

Main fla file:

import mx.controls.ComboBox;
import Myclass;

var createClassObject:Function;

var combotest2:Myclass = new MyClass();

MyClass.as

import mx.controls.ComboBox;

class Myclass extends MovieClip{

var name:ComboBox;
var createClassObject:Function;

public function Myclass(){

super.createClassObject (mx.controls.ComboBox, "name", 1);

name.addItem("item1");
name.addItem("item2");
}
}

Any ideas why the combo isn't showing?!?!?
