ENTER Key to next control 2

[chezbruin]

Hi,
I Have a form and when I hit the enter or tab key the focus moves to the next control, the problem is when the next control gets the focus if the previous control is blank the dropdown does not display for the previous control,however, if I use the mouse and click on the next control my drop down does display. What do I need to DO!
Thanks

If you want the dropdown to display when the Combobox gets the focus, then in the Got Focus event of the box you could put...

ComboBoxName.Dropdown

Lonnie,
I tried the dropdown on the focus with no luck, actually I set dropdown when I enter the control.

Here is the SendKeys command for drop down. Try this in the Got Focus.

SendKeys "%{down}" ljprodev@yahoo.com
