My combo box will jump to a letter entered (i.e. hit "w", it will jump to the "w"'s of the combo box list.)

However, it won't allow the user to down arrow to other w's in the list. It just goes to the first one forcing the user to use the mouse. I'm probably not explaining myself very clearly, but...

Anyone?

is there a way to do this without haveing to use the ALT key?
 
If you set the combo box to dropdown on focus, you should be able to use the arrow keys (I do this all the time).

Add to the ONGOTFOCUS event of the combo box:

<comboboxname>.Dropdown

Hope that helps,

Birgit
