String search in ComboBox

[Microsoft]

Hi All,

Any suggestions appreciated.
I am trying to do a string search through a comboBox list,
have created a simple test which is listed below. The problem
I am having is, every time a key is pressed it echoes the char
back to the combo twice. For example, if I type D in the combo
I get back Dd. The following app works OK if I use KeyPress
instead of KeyDown/KeyUp on my computer, but if I run it on
another computer (with .NET framework, without Visual Studio)
it does the doubling up thing as well.

?
Thx Regards
Steve
