I think i came across the same problem, but what i did instead, was store each name in the drop down menu in a DB. what you can do to get past this problem is to record a keyword test, click on the drop down menu/combo box, click on menu1. stop the recording. then go to the line where you click on menu1, create a DDT, set up all you DB connections and entries and variables, click next a couple until you come to the option of "hard-coded value", and select the DB column. Once that is complete, you can convert that key word to a script and fit it into your script at whatever part it should be.
