Select from a drop-down in IE

[lab_harts]

Hi, sorry, my macro knowledge is below average...I have the following code in my macro:



.....
Dim drp As HTMLFormElement
Set drp = HTML.getElementById("sfield")
' THESE ARE THE VALUES <option value="centrename">Center Name</option>
' THESE ARE THE VALUES <option value="district">District</option>
' THESE ARE THE VALUES <option value="location">Location</option>
drp.SelectedIndex = 1

.....


what if I want to use the "text" value in searching? in this case, I want to use the word "district" in selecting, instead of 1?

I would really appreciate any help...tia.
