Paul, I would create two controls: txtControl : enabled and locked cboBox : hide the text 'pane' of the combo box so only the grey box is visible and place the combo box next to the txtControl . On the afterupdate event of the combo box throw the selected item into the txtControl .....be mindful of the tab stop setting, you probably want to set one of the tab stops to 'No' ....
