Hi John,

>I have a simple combobox with a rowsourcetype of SQL and incremental searching set to .T., but it doesn't increment. I normally use a view or table to populate the combos, so is there something extra I need to do with the SQL as the rowsourcetype to enable incremental searching?

First of all, the incremental search interval is controlled by _DBLCLICK. By default this is 0.5 seconds, so you might type too slow and therefore get t he impression that there's no incremental search going on. You can change the variable in the GotFocus and restore it in LostFocus.

Second, for a drop down combo (the one where you can enter text), incremental search does only work when the list portion of the combo is visible. If what you want is a combo similar to the one in Quicken, you could check out one of the numerous quickfill combos that are available in the library here or have been presented in FoxTalk or Advisor.
