How to set the text cursor position in a Combobox Field? 1

[davidchardonnet]

Hello,

I use a combobox to make some queries on a database.
Every 'OnChange' makes a new query on the database and updates the 'items' property of the combobox.
My problem is that after the 'items' field is updated, the cursor position comes back to the left of the Combobox which prevents me from typing normally new characters.

I want to put the cursor back to the right to allow me to continue typing new characters.

Can you help me?

Thank you

David

You could try this:

ComboBox1.SelStart := ComboBox1.SelLength;

Let me know if it doesn't solve your problem Clive

Actually this line will probably work better:

ComboBox1.SelStart := Length(ComboBox1.Text);

Hope this helps! Clive
