User of one of my existing db's alerted me to a problem that may be from a difference in access 2010 vs 2003.
I have a cbo that drops down as soon as it gets focus:
Private Sub cboMBName_GotFocus()
Me!cboMBName.dropdown
End sub
Prior to 2010, when the cbo was entered, the dropdown occurred and stayed dropped while the user typed, moving down the alphabetic selections appropriately. In this scenario, when the first several characters had narrowed the selection, the user could then click on a following selection if appropriate.
In the new environment (without changing any programming) the dropdown occurs as before but disappears as soon as typing starts. The user is required to click the dropdown arrow if he wants a slightly lower selection.
Is this now the expected result for .dropdown ? Is there a way to return to the older action?
