Hi -
[Quoted] I have a form that is difficult to maneuver due to the fact that the
first column is a list-box item. When the form loads, the listbox on
the first row is defaulted for selection. Then, if someone hits the
arrow right or arrow left to maneuver to the next column/item, the
list box will pop up and scroll down to the next item in the item
list.
Also, even when I select the item text with the mouse, not clicking
on the down-arrow icon to the right of the text, the list box pops up.
Again, if the user hits the right-arrow or left arrow key, they
inadvertently change the item selected.
What I want is for the only time the list box to pop up is when the
user clicks on the down-arrow icon to the left of the item txt. Or,
if they've selected the item text, and they've hit the up or down
arrows.
This functionality is causing users to inadvertently update these
items.
Any help would be appreciated!
