Hi, Marilyn.  What I do is when I come to a combo box, I go into forms mode 
and alt down arrow to open the list.  Once I select the item I want, then I 
close the list with alt up arrow.  That highlights my item.  I did this 
today when I was doing some shopping on the Albertsons web site. Hope this 
helps.
Rosemarie
