>I'm trying to build a combo that appears as 4 textboxes, but has functionality of combo with arrow on right end of last text box. It all looks/works fine with containers and shapes on top of the combo, except that when I click to select from the combo, it rises to the top, normal behavior. Does anyone have an idea to keep the combo underneath the other objects?

Bruce, are these 4 textboxes all imitation of normal combo text portion?
