How to enlarge combo box arrow

[Sethington]

I have two combo boxes at the top of my form that are font size 24. It looks a little tacky because of the small down arrow on the right. Is there a ways to enlarge this to fill the size of the font.

I do not think it can be done, but you could fake it by rolling your own combo box with a textbox, command button, and subform.

1)Replace the combo with a text box.
2)Put a command button with a downward triangle or other image (the correct size) next to the textbox
3)put a subform under the textbox, but make it invisible.
4) on the onclick of the commandbutton make the subform visible.
5) Make the on click event of all text boxes in the subform set the value in the main forms text box
and hide the subform

6)

Thanks for the post. As much as I care about aesthetics I don't think that it is worth the time and money.
