Questions on scripting a list box or combo box

I am trying to take in two vectors as inputs. One vector containing a list of names and another vector that has numeric values for those names. I want to create a list box or combo box that mimics the "What I Would Like:" in the previous script that I posted. Basically that the listbox contains list of names and then outputs a unique value that is linked to each name (by way of a second vector that I can input into the list box.

ListBox.CurSel gives you the index into the list. So just pick off the correct entry in Values as the output:

Outputs(0).Value = Values(ListBox.CurSel), as you show below.

I saw that an array "ListBox" was created and populated with the list of names from a vector input.

ListBox is not an array, it is an object. In fact, it is the listbox object that is on the Mathcad worksheet.

I also noticed the hanging next as well, but I thought it had some use that was above my comprehension. I've deleted it from my script.

The problem was not that you had a Next, it's that you didn;t have two of them. All loops are terminated by a Next statement (just as all Ifs are terminated by an End If statement).

How to create the array: Dim Values()? How to populate the array... a) 1-dimensional vectors: Values.Addstring(Inputs(1).Value(i)? b) From a 2-D array... no clue? How to output the correct value: Outputs(0).Value = Values(ListBox.CurSel)?

Dim Values(). This creates the array, with an undefined number of elements

To populate it

Values = Inputs(0).Values

Your output statement will work fine.

I'm lost in translation, I think.

I hate to say it, but I think perhaps you are lost in the basics. I get the impression that you are not just new to VBscript, but new to programming in general. If you want to program in any language that works with objects (which is just about every modern language) then you need to understand what objects are. You also need to learn the syntax of the specific language: the different variable types, the syntax for loops, the syntax for conditional statements, etc. You need to get a book and read up on this stuff, because without the basics you will have difficulty even modifying existing scripts, let alone writing ones from scratch.
