The application that i am writing i would like the control to lookup
parts from a database, but as you are entering if the part is
different the control allows you to enter the new name... if the item
is in the lookup list (drop down box) then you could/would select it.
yes i want the control to act similar to a dblookupcombobox but with
edit ability.
thanks,
