Combo Box Help

[alpine82]

Is there a way to keep a combo box expanded at all times? So that it is never closed, and you never have to click on the little arrow on the right side? Like a list box but with the same properties as a combo box, that is still being able to enter data instead of having to pick from a list.

No, you can't keep a combo box open permanently. You can use the .Dropdown method to open a combo box when it gets the focus, but it will close right up when you select a value or move the focus out.

You can simulate a permanently open combo box though. Try out the samples in this post: Lookup List
