Hi Chris Maybe you can still use the combo box Just hide the 'real' drop down arrow with a button the relevant Size with an appropriate graphic Then on the click of that button have some code that says something like... Me.cmbMyCombo.setfocus Me.cmbMyCombo.Dropdown Your users will see the 'real' drop down arrow but see if you can play with it HTH Have a great day Darren -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Christopher Hawkins Sent: Tuesday, 14 September 2004 2:40 PM To: accessd at databaseadvisors.com Subject: Re: [AccessD] Hack Requested - Increase Combo Box Button Size?
