I have a combo box set up so I can select a state. When I enter the first
letter of the state ie. "M" the state Maine shows in the box. To move to the
another state ie. Minnesota I have to use click on the down arrow in the
combo box. I would like to be able to just press the down or up arrow on my
keyboard to move up and down the list.
Can anyone tell me how to do this if it is possible?
I am still a novice at this Acess stuff so please explain it in simple terms
if you can

Thanks
 
Bill,
on the combo's property dialog, on the Data tab, look for the property
called Autoexpand.
Set this to No and you will be able to use the up and down arrows to scroll
up and down the combo.
