It's easily one of the more useful controls I've ever used, yet it just sits there all quiet and unassuming. I've run into a lot of people who know one of twoen-USCommunityServer 2.1 SP1 (Build: 61025.2)http://blogs.msdn.com/shawnfa/archive/2004/02/27/81338.aspx#81362Sat, 28 Feb 2004 01:30:00 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:81362Anonymous CowardIt took me a while to realize what you were talking about. This is the combo box that lives next to the toolbar buttons (and is part of the Standard toolbar). It's the 2nd combo box. <br> <br>At first I thought you were referring to the Combo Box in the find dialog, but it obviously doesn't have these behaviors you described. <br> <br>With the information you pointed out I only had one remaining question - how do you select the combo box via the keyboard? So I looked it up. For others who are wondering the answer is Ctrl-D. Thanks for the tips!http://blogs.msdn.com/shawnfa/archive/2004/02/27/81338.aspx#81368Sat, 28 Feb 2004 01:41:00 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:81368ShawnRight you are -- the one on the toolbar.

For a list of predefined commands, check out &quot;Pre-defined Visual Studio Command Aliases&quot; on MSDN: <a target="_new" href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/vsintro7/html/vxgrfpredefinedcommandlinealiases.asp">http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/vsintro7/html/vxgrfpredefinedcommandlinealiases.asp</a> <br> <br>-Shawnhttp://blogs.msdn.com/shawnfa/archive/2004/02/27/81338.aspx#568907Wed, 05 Apr 2006 16:01:32 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:568907MarkYou may call this fun, I call it &quot;Easter eggs&quot;. &nbsp;Why would they build this capability into a widget and not explain it in the documentation? &nbsp;Why wouldn't they give some indication in the displayed dialog box that further capabilities exist? <br> <br>No wonder these programs are so obscenely bloated &nbsp;and slow to run. &nbsp;They are doing a zillion extra little things that nobody knows about or cares about rather than doing their main job well. <br> <br>Imagine where the world of computing would be if it hadn't been for Microsoft! &nbsp;Computers would actually save time, like they were intended to.http://blogs.msdn.com/shawnfa/archive/2004/02/27/81338.aspx#636682Mon, 19 Jun 2006 12:32:45 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:636682vedalaThe shortcut Ctrl+D takes you there in find mode.
