I have a VB6 app that I'm working on, and I want to change the behavior of
my combo boxes. At present, if I put the control focus on one,
then press, say, the 'S' key, its list goes to the first item that starts
with the letter S. If I then press the letter 'A', it goes to the first item
that starts with 'A'. I would rather that it went to the first item that
starts with 'SA'. I seem to remember that there was some way to configure a
combo box to do this, but I can't find a way. Any ideas how to work on
vb.net?


Thanks.
