>From the Change History:

- Changed the behavior of the combo box after a successful search
conducted from the bar or dialog window. The change does not affect
the behavior of a search initiated by preselecting text in the
starting window.

Regardless of how a search is initiated, if the search is successful
the content of combo box contains the entries that anywhere matched
the search text. (If unsuccessful, the combo box includes all source
file entries.)

Previously, after loading the combo box, CA selected the first entry
that actually began with the search text. This meant the list could
contain entries above the focused item, and to see them it was
necessary to scroll backwards. That continues to be the behavior used
when the search is initiated by preselecting text in the starting
window. For example, if you select "for" in the starting window, then
start CA with your hotkey, the list will include all entries with
"for" in them, -and- CA will select the first entry that begins with
"for" just as if you had typed f-o-r to the focused combo box.

Now, when a search is not the result of preselected text, CA makes no
assumptions about what is being sought. If you enter "for" in the
search criteria edit box, it loads the combo box as before, but makes
no selection. The first visible entry (assuming pprofunctions_cb.otl
is the loaded source file) will be *Format. To get to the one that
starts with "for", you can enter the keystrokes f-o-r (which uses the
autocompletion behavior of the combo box for scrolling and selecting).
Any time the combo box is expanded it means the combo box has keyboard
focus.

- Updated and made a few corrections to the chm help file.
