why not just use a listbox set to one row high?

I would set
Me.comboname.dropdown
In the combos key dowwn and mouse down. Then you can scroll with the wheel.

This is super confusing IMO. The value in the window is unlikely to be selected. The user has to remember to then select it too.

I think in either case if you want to scroll and automatically select will require API.

true - I was assuming scroll and click. With a combo, if there are not enough rows there is nothing to scroll unless the combo list is set to 1 row high - and you still need to click.

It is just with a listbox, you don't need to click in order to scroll, just having the mouse over the control is sufficient, then click. With a combo, you need to click to expose the dropdown (tho' I guess you could use the combo mouseover event to expose it), but then you are moving the mouse from the control to the dropdown, scrolling then clicking.

But agree, to auto select will require an api if you don't want the user to select by clicking
