>>Hi, all,
>>
>>When selecting an item from a combox list in a dropped down state using the keyboard with the mouse cursor sitting somewhere on top of the list, the combobox gives the user confusing information. Fox example, I've the followwing items in my combox:
>>
>>Anne
>>Bob
>>Chris
>>Dan
>>Evan
>>Frank
>>George
>>
>>So I use the mouse to drop the list down, then I start using the arrow keys or the letters to go through the list. If the mouse cursor is sitting on the second line, in this case Bob, then whatever item on the second line (Bob) is highlighted while the textbox part shows Evan if I press the letter E. Is there a SIMPLE way to hide the mouse cursor during the selection by the keyboard?

>>TIA,

Terry,

Thank you for the reply!

But what you've suggested doesn't solve my problem, the mouse pointer still shows up when I scroll through the list using the keyboard. Any other ideas?
