Okay. It appears that I need to set the Walkmenu off for the users to get the desired effect out of the ComboBoxes. I noticed that when I used the R> Prompt to see the current settings it states "(WALKMENU) ON Search menus based on multiple keystrokes". The users want to be able to go through the menu with just one keystroke....

Any ideas? WALKMEMU setting MUST be ON prior to using the ComboBox with walk menu (menu items based on multiple keystrokes). SHOW WALKMENU at the R> prompt will reveal the current setting. In your specific situation, try the following setting as "On Before Start EEP" for the form property. SET WALKMENU ON RETURN And use the following setting as "On Close EEP" SET WALKMENU OFF RETURN That's all there is to it! Very Best R:egards, Razzak.
