Just wanted you to know how helpful this thread was. I have spent the morning trying to figure out why 2 comboboxes in a grid on a pageframe quit dropping down. I use VFP 8.0 sp1. By some infinite VFP wisdom the style property changed during editing code. After reading this thread, I reset the property to 2 and now they work. I have had a similar issue with the readonly state of the grid but it all of a sudden started working properly. It is so stressful when changing code breaks something or fixes itself. of all the threads I had read from Marcia, Sergio, and others, this is the only one that mentioned the Style property.

But we still love Fox. There isn't a better solution for apps with small data needs.

Thanks again, Chuck

When I pop up the combobox list, typing anything immediately closes the list and I see the character I typed in the collapsed combobox (what is the correct terminology for the collapsed combobox object?).
