Hi all,

A subclassed Combobox will exhibit the following characteristics on a form (the control(s) in question are 3rd-level of containership hierarchy), vis-a-vis the mouse pointer, when mousing across the data (input) area towards the dropdown arrow...

1) as expected, the pointer becomes the I-beam as it enters the input/display area from the right, top, or bottom.

2) the I-beam persists, as expected, mousing across the same area, towards the drop-arrow.

3) On reaching the drop-arrow it REMAINS AS I-BEAM.

4) Continuing across the drop-arrow the I-BEAM PERSISTS.

5) Reaching the right edge of the drop-arrow the pointer reverts the the (proper) pointer.

It was expected that the I-beam would change to the standard pointer immediately reaching the drop-arrow.

Now clicking on the drop-arrow and clicking on an entry to have it display in the text area and repeating the above, the I-BEAM-to-POINTER transition happens correctly (as it reaches the left side of the drop-arrow).

This occurs not on every combo, but on approximately 90% of them.

Anyone seen this and know of a fix/bypass?

Thanks
Jim
