word combobox and alert message box

G

I have two issues with a template file that has three comboboxes, two command
buttons a a date field. Everything works OK and I can concatenate the date
and combobox selections into a file name and save it to the network drive. My
issues are more aesthetic than non-functional but never the less here they
are:

1. I cannot figure out how to use the scroll wheel of mouse to scroll within
combobox. If I scroll while in a combobox, the box remains still and document
page scrolls in background. It acts as though mouse focus is still on page
and not in combobox, although I've already clicked on dropdown button to
display list and that should have set focus to combobox. What am I missing
here??
2. I want to have the alert message box displayed at bottom center of screen
and not in center center which apparently is the default. I can't find any
code that allows me to place message box in different locations on screen.

I can only assume these issues are mostly my fumbling inexperience with VBA.
I know in AutoCAD I can place my routine dialog boxes anywhere on the screen
through the lisp code and the scroll button on mouse works just fine on drop
down lists created in lisp. I just can't figure out the VBA for Mr. Bill's
stuff.
