Count of Combo Boxes with data

[Mask]

Hi all,

I have a form with about 40 combo boxes for different business categories. Users need to select a name from at least 15 of these boxes as votes in a contest.

Is there a way to have a count somewhere on the form to show the number of boxes which have a name entered to make it easier to keep track of when at least 15 have data?

Thanks in advance.
