this just isn't working for me... if I do a $self = shift; in the beginning of that sub function, my $self value is blank. Of course, then, the call 
$selection = $comboboxes[$self]->GetString($comboboxes[$self]->Selecte
+dItem);

fails. My code currently is this: 

sub ComboBox{
    $self = shift;
    #print "In ComboBox - $self";
    $selection = $comboboxes[$self]->GetString($comboboxes[$self]->Sel
+ectedItem);
    #print $selection;
}

foreach my $x (0..$count){
    $SUB = $accounts[$x]."ComboBox_Change";
    *$SUB = \&ComboBox;
}

If those print lines weren't commented out, the output is "In ComboBox - ". Is my logic wrong here, or just my coding? Is there an easier solution I'm overlooking that would still allow for my arrays to grow with the spreadsheet?
