Erick,

No, actually I meant what I thyped:

$HostName ->Select(0);


It works for me.

Make sure you place that before your Win32::GUI::Dialog() call or somewhere 
where it will get called from a specific sub.

Try this short code and see if it works:
=====================================
use Win32::GUI;

my $screen_width = Win32::GUI::GetSystemMetrics(0);
my $screen_height = Win32::GUI::GetSystemMetrics(1);
my $minwidth = 620;
my $minheight = 255;

my $MainWindow = new Win32::GUI::Window(
 -name   => "MainWindow",
 -top    => ($screen_height - $minheight)/2,
 -left   => ($screen_width - $minwidth)/2,
 -width  => $minwidth,
 -height => $minheight,
 -minsize=> [$minwidth,$minheight],
 -title  => "Sample Window",
);

$HostName = $MainWindow->AddCombobox(
    -name     => "HostName",
    -tabstop  => 1,
    -style    => WS_VISIBLE | 2 | WS_NOTIFY,
    -left     => 205,
    -top      => 10,
    -width    => 110,
    -height   => 160,
);
$HostName->InsertItem ("ftp.server1.com");
$HostName->InsertItem ("ftp.server2.com");


$MainWindow->Show();
$HostName->Select(0);


Win32::GUI::Dialog();
=============================================

Let me know if it still doesn't work for you.

  Johnathan,

  Do you mean $HostName ->Select[0];
  I tried both ways, both don't work.
