Hi
I have a form that has a combobox that is datalinked to a lookupsql.
The lookupsql has an order by clause.
When I activate the combobox the enteries appear in the correct order however i cannot navigate the entries using the keyboard. i.e. pressing the "P" key does not go to the first entry beginning with P.

Any help greatly appreciated

Is the combobox.style = 2 - DropDownList?

Also you may want to take a look at comboAFS in the dUFLP. That will
allow you to perform incremental searches.
