Interesting. I haven't noticed a program recently that doesn't do it. Can you point me to a popular one? I just tried the stuff on my quick-launch bar, and Cool Edit, Pagemaker, Paint Shop Pro, Sonar, and Finale all do that. >You will notice that the dropdown lists in HTML forms (i.e., on web >pages) do not have this feature. They do from here, but only with the first letter cycling through the list. (On state lists, I tab to the field and touch "V" and always get Vermont. It's a long way down the list otherwise!)
