No problem.
>In the same vein, in the properties sheet, with same level of complications. Judging the indentation of a control in the cbo does not give an indication of the real depth (so after page down few times we see a change in indentation), is there any way to judge if the change in indentation for a control, the control is a sibling of the control 3 pageup back?
I don't think so. I generally use the document view as much as possible or use Shift + Ctrl + Click to drill directly down to a control on a form/class. So I don't use the property sheet to drill down into forms/controls.
