I found that the combobox must be open and after the incremental search work but i want that the user just type in the combobox without opening it and the combo will search for the value as the user type.

But even if I set the property to allow incremental search to allow incremental search this is not working. I also try to set different value for _INCSEEK = N. If I change from combobox to drown down list without changing any other property the incremental search is working nice but user can't type new value.
