At a first look, the answer is 'yes'. I'll study the sample in depth.
The only difference I noted is that you used
Public Shadows ReadOnly Property Items() As ObjectCollection
while I used
Public Shadows ReadOnly Property Items() As ImageComboItemCollection
Do you think that the different type of the collection can be responsible
for the problem I have?
Thany you, Mick, for helping me...
