I have to retype the character and continue typing. After pressing OK, whatever I typed is populated into textbox, including spaces. The filter text includes spaces.
Not really sure what you mean by 'navigation' and 'edit' modes.
Interesting, when I manually press F2, it toggles selection/unselection of text in textbox. More interesting, when I use DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdZoomBox instead of SendKeys I end up in an endless loop. You might try OnEnter event with DoCmd instead of Change and SendKeys.
Cannot replicate the issue. If you want to provide db for analysis, follow instructions at bottom of my post.
I've never used Change event. I use combobox with AutoExpand and AfterUpdate event to apply filter.
Don't understand your issue with combobox. After selecting item from list, the drop list closes.
