Hello All,

I am trying to access the "Find a Contact" combo box  programmatically
(VBA).
I can create an object that refers to this control by looking at the
controls collection in the "Standard" commandbar. The SetFocus method does
not leave me with a cusror in the combobox field, as I would expect. The
Execute method returns an error indicating that I haven't entered anything
in the field, which tells me at least that my object is referring to the
control that I want it to.
What am i doing wrong here? Any help would be appreciated.

Can you post the code you're working with?
