Guys,
I have a form/sub form where we enter order information.
As you tab through the sub form a combox appears in each feild to choose data from a list.
When you tab/move out of the feild the combo box disappers.
This works well except that as you add lines to the order and if you pass the mouse over a feild the combo box in EVERY line opens. (see attached PDF)
A few of my users have complained that this is very distracting, especially when using the mouse.
In some cases, just between two feilds the screen really starts flashing!
Is there anyway to set this subform up so that the combo box only appears when the cursor is in the feild by either a tab movement of a mouse click? (only in the line that has focus)
Thanks
JohnG

use the .DropDown method in the Getfocus, mouse move, and keydown(the key code for tab )
 
Hi,
Sorry about the upside down PDF!
Could you explain what you mean a bit more, I am new user and don't really understand what you mean.
Thanks
JG
