in foxpro and a lot of MFC apps I have developed always had the first item
selected by default, along with ASP apps I've created. It seems strange to
have nothign selected but after you select something that you can no longer
change it to have nothing selected after that.

* "Brian Henry" <brianiup[nospam]@adelphia.net> scripsit: Is there a reason when you have items in the items collection of a combo
box when set to dropdownlist mode why it doesn't select the first item by
default? by default it shows up as a blank box, which is strange unless
you manually select one or programaticly set the index to zero. thanks
A listbox doesn't get the first item selected automatically too, so why
should this be done automatically for a combobox?
