I have a combo box that lists all of the available options to enter in this field. While doing data entry it takes extra time to move my hand from the keyboard to the mouse to click on the drop down arrow. Can I program the box to open with a keystrock like the down arrow instead of the mouse click?

Use Alt+Downarrow, or you could issue a .DropDown in the gotfocus event of the combo
