>John, the Incremental search is linked to the speed of your Double-click (which is set on your Mouse setup in Windows). Don't ask why MS linked a keyboard item to a mouse speed. However, if you type too slowly, then your combo will APPEAR to not be using IncrementalSearch.

Also you can play with _DBLCLICK system variable. The _DBLCLICK setting overrides the setting specified in the Mouse dialog box in the Window Control Panel. And for not affecting other things you can set _DBLCLICK value in Combobox GotFocus() and reset in LostFocus().
