>From the UT this morning: We are carrying out some tests of our products on Vista and have discovered a problem with VFP's combobox control.
When the combo drops down every item in the list is displayed in the selected colour. This does not prevent you from using the mouse to click on the item you want and so you can still use the combo sucessfully, but it looks very strange and would certainly make it almost impossible to use the combo with the keyboard up and down arrow keys. Curiously the behaviour seems to be linked to how the combo is populated, we practically always use AddItem and this always gives the problem described, but in cases where the combo is populated by setting the RowSource it sometimes works correctly. Has anyone else seen this behaviour? Is this scheduled to be addressed in VFP9 SP2? Doug Henning replied with : One of the goals of SP2 is to address Vista issues. You may want to report this to MS to ensure it is specifically handled.
