Hi John.

>> Is there some secret to making the incremental search work in a combo box. I have tried every combination I can think of, searched the MSDN help and the UT... When I type a letter nothing happens. <<

Set the style to 2-Drop Down list and set incremental search to .T. (the default). You may also want to add a custom property to your combo called nDblClick and put code like this in its GotFocus()

This.nDblClick = _DBLCLICK
_DBLCLICK = 1.5

And this in the LostFocus()

_DBLCLICK = This.nDblClick

It is _DBLCLICK that determines how long VFP will "wait" between keystokes before resetting the incremental search.
