getSelectedItem and setSelectedIndex

[eggnogg]

heya ppl!

i need to pass some information between two frame in the same movie:

i have a comboBox, and when i choose an item from it's drop down menu and click a button, the movie goes to frame2 and displays the data associated with the item i chose, in a dynamic text box (variable). that's easy :

_root.variable = (myMc.comboBox.getSelectedItem().label);

what i don't know how to do is retrieving the index number of the item i selected in the comboBox, when i go back to frame1! is there a way to save that information so that the user can go back and see the item he selected?

regards

I'm not sure what you are asking, but you can save any information in either an array or as a standalone object. I don't have much experience with the later, but just push it into an array and read it from back to front.
