When a ComboBox's menu is dropped down, but no item is selected, it
seems to take two clicks to transfer focus to another control. This
happens in situation's as simple as 1 combobox and 1 button on a form.

1. Am I crazy?
2. Am I missing something?
3. If  those two questions return 'no' then
      How do I fix it so that focus is switched on one click?

TIA, Chuck Burkins

Will the property "CloseUp" do what you need?

Ex:

procedure TForm1.ComboBox.OnClick(Sender : TObject);
begin
 ComboBox.CloseUp;
end;

Hope it helps!

Can't find CloseUp as a property for TComboBox, but I tried
DroppedDown. It didn't seem to work.
You know what's really annoying? Now I seem to have fixed it, but I'm
not sure how, perhaps by setting ComboBox.ItemIndex:=-1 OnExit.

Thanks for your help anyway.  -Chuck

p.s.  Does the Delphi Enthusiast, Hobbiest, mean that you program for
fun, instead of as you steady job? Is this common? I seem to have
stumbled into programming as a hobby and I'm wondering just how loony
I am.
