I have combo boxes in a form. I want to be able to not use the mouse at all
during data entry. Is there a way that you can tab to a combo box and then
have the information drop down using a key stroke. If you need more
clarification, when i move to the combo box using just key stroke i can not
select the entires in the combo box without using my house. Thanks for any
suggestions.
 
If you set the Auto expand property to true, the user only needs to start
typing to make a selection. Alternatively you could use the DropDown to
method when the combo box receives focus. You might also want to play with
the List Rows property to get a user friendly selection.

Example (from Access Help)
Private Sub SupplierID_GotFocus()
Me!SupplierID.Dropdown
End Sub
