I have found a problem in the combos tested on vfp8...When the combo has a lot of items if you press the arrow to drop down the list then the combo list behaves funny. If you try to click an item it selects the wrong one and using the down arrow key moves through the items without changing the whole list. However, If you press the scroll bar first then everything works.

It is reproducable as follows..

1) place a combo on a form..
2) Set the following properties...
columncount=2
columnwidths=100,100
fontsize=8
rowsource=select supname,supno from supplier where not empty(supname) into cursor csuppplier
rowsourcetype=3

The supplier table has 2894 records but I tested it with 1500,1000, then 500
with 500 the problem goes away.

Does anyone have a possible workaround..

I tried the same form in vfp7 and the problem does not occur...
