Assign the contents of a blob field to combobox items

Question

Hi

I have list of country names or other strings in a text blob field. When I read the field, I get a string back with LfCr between the words or phrases. Is there an easy way to assign this string to the Items property of a TComboBox? I'm using TADOQuery on a FireBird 2.1 Database.

Regards, Pieter

If you've got LFCRs between the phrases, then just assign the string to the Items.Text property, which takes a string and splits it into individual items at the linebreaks.
