The users types what he wants into the combo box (while it's NOT open) and hits enter. The combobox is not open. Fine, I only want it to open if what they type in is not valid. So...In my valid clause I check to see if it is or not. However, nothing I try will get the combobox to open (besides clicking on it!).

I've tried THIS.Click & THIS.MouseDown which seem to make sense, but...

Thanx in advance
