I've got a form with several combo boxes. One is a custom box. If I click in this custom box and hit down (as to scroll through the choices), my focus moves to the next field just like it does if I hit tab.

Any idea what setting I need to use to get the down arrow key to scroll rather than tab?

TIA.
 
I dont know if this helps but here is a combo box I have that goes down one by one.

Pribate sub cbostate_change()

with cbostate

If .ListCount = 0 then

.additem ("CT")
.additem ("NJ")
.additem ("PA")
.additem ("NY")
.additem ("ME")
.additem ("MA")

end if

.ListIndex = 0

End With
End Sub
 
I am not sure I am reading this right. Hold the Down arrow button down and it will continue to go down the list. Maybe a little choppy, but it will keep moving.
 
I think it's possibly a 3rd party combobox or something. The properties of this box look different from the properties of the other "regular" combo boxes. It's listed as a "CatselCombo" where all the others are listed as just "ComboBox".

I can still scroll through the contents of this box by clicking on the drop down arrow, but if I click in the box, then push the down arrow key, it goes to the next combobox like a tab stop. If I do the same thing on a regular combobox, it'll scroll through the contents.

Anyone, anyone??
