Combo Box Dropdown

B

Bill

I can't figure out how to activate the combo box dropdown on the first record
where a combo box is part of a subform. I am trying to show a dropdown with
appropriate product categories when moving from customer record to customer
record.

The combo box (cmbProdCat) is on a subform (sfrmProdCat) which is embedded
in a tab control (tctlProdCat) on the parent customer form (frmCustomer).
Once I click on the tab control (tctlProdCat), and then move past the first
customer, the combo box (cmbProdCat) opens in dropdown mode as expected based
on code in the On Current event of the subform (sfrmProdCat). It also works
as expected when I go back to the first record using record selectors.

The problem is with the first record when I click on tab control tctlProdCat
to show subform sfrmProdCat for the first time. In this case combo box
cmbProdCat does not "dropdown".

How can I get the combo box cmbProdCat to dropdown on the first record?

Thanks for your help.
