combobox dropdown behavior

Hello All,

I have a combobox (several actually) with which I'm having behavioral
problems.

I want the combobox to drop down when someone tabs to the control, I've
added
'Me.cmbServiceType.DroppedDown = True' to the enter event.
This works fine.

The problem comes when a user 'clicks' on the combobox. The box drops then
goes back up. I can't seem to stop this behavior no matter what I try.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Fritz

I heard there is a ComboBox 'Behavioural' correction facility in Redmond,
its called the development team of microsoft.

This behavious is normal, because it isa response to a user selecting from
the combobox. You could try using the selectedIndexChanged event to make the
DropDown=true

ch(i) = Convert.ToChar(Convert.ToInt16(ch(i)) - 1)
Next
