Hello Gennadiy,

Try putting a timeout in the gotfocus() event of the combobox. The combobox is one a timer -- if stall around in gotfocus() until the timer runs out, the list will not drop. I cannot tell you the precise interval -- I found it by accident when I had a lot of code in a gotfocus() event of a combobox and it would not drop until the second click. Actually this is a bug, but one that seem to work to your advantage in this instance. A couple of milleseconds ought to do it.

Another way that sees to work is to put a call to an object outside of the form the control is on i.e. this.backcolor = oApp.backcolor. This seems to create enough delay so the list will not drop.

I cannot guarantee either of these will work -- but these are little bugs that have driven me crazy in the past.

Regards,

JME
