Hello all,

There is a way to expand a drop down combo box by code? I mean, like pushing F4 with the combo box focused

Thanks afterwards.

    try this code :

    working-st....
    77 hwnd pic x(4) comp-n.


    code:
    call "user32.dll".
    inquire Screen1-Cm-1(
    call "SendMessageA" using by value hwnd,
    256, | WM_KEYDOWN
    115, | VK_F4
    0.

    PS-> set WIN_F4_DROPS_COMBOBOX environment variable to 1 :cool:

    You can use the cobol W$KEYBUF routine to send key presses.
