Hi Abdul This problem of not being able to scroll using the Scroll wheel on the mouse is causing a real pain.
My machine is a Toshiba Portage A 100 Laptop with Windows 2000 Advanced Server with SP4 I am still getting the problem. What could the cause be??

I tried scrolling via TrackPoint in T41, it doesn't work. However with a proper mouse, I am able to scroll ComboBox list.

Scenario: Click on save button and you find that there is a validation error which needs the user to make a/another > choice on the dropdown. The focus should get set to the dropdown. Setting the focus on ComboBox while mouse is still over Button, would be hard. But there is a better of doing validation, you can use Validator to show error messages. If user has selected a wrong option, ComboxBox's border would turn read and doing a mouse-hover would reveal a error message. See the example code below. > 2.Need facility to be able to scroll through the list of values in a dropdown using the roller button on a mouse. This does not seem to happen for a dropdown created > using Flex You mean Scroll Wheel in Mouse. It does work, did you test in browser? it works on Firefox as well as IE. ###test.mxml### <?xml version="1.0"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml" creationComplete="onAppInit()" > <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ var countries; function onAppInit() { countries = ["India", "Pakistan", "Sri Lanka", "Indonesia", "Singapore", "USA", "UAE"]; } function validateCountry(validator, value) { if (value == "Pakistan" || value == "Indonesia") { validator.validationError("Wrong Country", "This country is not supported country list.", "country"); } } ]]> </mx:Script> <mx:Model id="membership"> <country>{countryNames_cb.value}</country> </mx:Model> <mx:Form id="membershipForm"> <mx:FormItem id="countryNamesItem" label="Countries"> <mx:ComboBox id="countryNames_cb" dataProvider="{countries}"/> </mx:FormItem> </mx:Form> <mx:Validator field="membership.country" listener="countryNames_cb" validate="validateCountry(event.validator, event.value);"/> </mx:Application> HTH, -abdul Yahoo!
