Hi, I found this thread listed a while back in 2005, but there were no replies, so I am bringing it up again because it is very annoying and hopefully soemone here know the solution.
"I sometimes use the standard Me.mycombo.Dropdown in the GotFocus event of a Combo Box.
I've noticed that when this is used with a Combo Box that is placed on top of a Tab Control and the user clicks the dropdown arrow on the Combo Box, the dropdown quickly flashes, but doesn't open, requiring the user to click the dropdown arrow again."
I tested it on a form without a tab and it functions properly.
Also it does work (dropdown) the first time, if I click not on the arrow, but in the combobox field instead.
Does anyone know how to workaround this problem so the dropdown, drops down, on the first click of the arrow.
Thanks,
