Hi,

I have inserted the custom component that generates a drop down field
list (similar to a combo box).  I have an ODBC link to an Access
database.  When I view the form with the field list, I would like to be
able to type in the first few letters of a name, to jump to the name I
want!  It only half sort of works at the moment - the first letter I
type is recognised. eg if I want to search the contents of the filed
list for Brian, and there are 50 records under 'B', then the first 'B'
record is thrown up.  When I type 'R' for the second letter, either
nothing happens, or the first 'R' record comes up, eg'Robert'.  Can
anyone help?

Thanks
