Combo Box drop down on mouse hover show & hide

[aamer]

i am using the following code and it works fine



Private Sub CboTSF_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)

Me.CboTSF.SetFocus
Me.CboTSF.Dropdown



End Sub


The problem with this code is as I move mouse on the combo box it drops down (Which It should) butt i want to add a code so when I move the mouse pointer away from combo box, the drop down list of combo box is closed.

Try adding code to the mouse move event of the detail section of the form (or the section containing the combo).

[pbaldy]

Set focus somewhere else.

I tried the following but even this is not working


Private Sub CboTSF_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)

Me.CboTSF.SetFocus
Me.CboTSF.Dropdown
Else
Forms("AccTitleSearchFrm").SetFocus

End Sub

[pbaldy]

Well, you don't have an If or an End If, but I think all you need is code in the detail section's mouse move event.

Remove the added Else and set focus lines from your code
Then as already stated by pbaldy add a mouse move event to the detail section

Private Sub Detail_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
    
    Me.SomeOtherControlName.SetFocus
    
End Sub

Use a suitable control name from your form in the above code
