Nah, they aren't nasty, they're nice. :-) Do any of your combos have tables for
the rowsource? If so, do you have a relation to the table, or are you letting
the combo handle it?

You can type in something that isn't in the array if you set the Style to
Drop-Down Combo, but for it to stick, you have to add the value to the array
in the Valid or LostFocus.

To get the IncrementalSearch to work better, set the system variable _DBLCLICK
to 1.5 or so seconds: it defaults to .5, so that you have to type quite quickly.


HTH.....
