Combo Box Navigation

[Robert B via AccessMonster.com]

I'd like to be able to type the first few letters of a combo box field (alpha
sorted) in the combo box, press the selector and have the list automatically
scroll to the first instance of these letters .... a "find first" operation
in a recordset, but a mystery to me in a combo box. Is this possible?

That's an automatic feature of combo boxes. Just make sure
it's AutoExpand property is set to Yes.
