Combo box question

B

Bill

I want to be able to have the controls mousemove event be able to
programmitally supply information from the dropdown list. Example: If the
second item is highlighted, before I select it is there a way to access the
data.
I'll explain my thinking. I have a dropdown list, but the information I need
the viewer to see is from a RTF control. I would like to have a RTF control
on my form that will sync with the highlighted combo box dropdown list. So
if I am over record 100 then the RTF would sync with what is highlighted. Is
there a way to read the information I am currently over? A propery to
reference?

Hi Bill

There is certainly no way to do this in "standard" Access. You would need
to click on the list item and select it before it becomes known to your
code. It may be possible using Windows API calls, but it would involve some
pretty tricky code.

Sorry :-(
