Enter text in ComboBox

Just a quickie:
I have a ComboBox, and set it so I can write in its text field. Now, as
I write and then press enter, nothing happens (except a beep). Do I need
to handle a KeyPress event to invoke the ValueChanged event and make the
entered data persistent? It's one of those zoom combo's.

Hi Peder,

What exactly do you want to happen when you press enter? And what is a zoom
combo?

Happy Coding!

Hi Morten!
A zoom combo is one of those ComboBoxes used in i.e. Word with the zoom
percentage on the document (75%, 100%, 150% etc). It is possible to
enter a custom percentage in the text field (i.e. 103%), but my combo
beeps and doesn't invoke any events. Hope this is clearer. This must be
a very normal question, altough I haven't found it. In general too many
results are returned and I expected it to have a simple solution. Thanks!
