Certain combo boxes require a left click with the jaws curser just below the box itself to open up the list. I know of only a single place where this is a problem for me. My wife says it's something to do the way it looks because the combo box in question does not have a scroll bar or something like that so far as what she can see on the screen.

Try opening it by first turning forms mode on and then using Alt plus down arrow. You should hear something about the combo box being open. Now arrow down to the choice you want. If it's the type of combo box I'm thinking of, you can just press tab to move away from that box and it should open the page with whatever choice you selected.
