Cannot Write to Combo Box with System Events

Can anyone shed some light on how to write a value to a combo box with System Events? AppleScript can right to 

tell application "System Events"
tell process "sapgui"
set the ????? of combo box 2 of scroll area 1 of window 1 to "abc"
end tell
end tell

I’ve tried setting the text, the value, the contents, etc. What is the nature of a combo box and how do you set its value. I can set the value without System Events with AppleScript, so there must be some syntax to do this.
