Combo Box

Is it just me or is the first key stroke ignored when using a combo box. My data entry people have asked me to remove all combo boxes from the entry screens because of this.

I thought a combo box was dynamic and either keyboard or mouse could be used to enter data. Example: Combo Box is pre-loaded with top 25 female first names. If the they start typing the name the box does drop until the second keystroke and the first keystroke is wasted. I tried it and they are correct. You have to hit an arrow key, shift or space so the next key recorded.

THIS IS A BIG PROBLEM. Is there a fix???

Seems when I type a letter that is the first letter of an item in the list, the combox box drops down. Does that not work for you?
