It works when the user uses the mouse to select an item, but when the user
press a key to select the first item matching the key pressed, the property
dbList1.boundText contains the data of item before movement or matching is
executed. ?How can I get the property 'dbList1.boundText' after the matching
is executed?

thanks in advanced

The way I got around this (for a dbCombo) was to put a SetFocus command in the
click event for the dbCombo to move the cursor to another control.  In the
LostFocus event of the dbCombo, I put the code to update the other controls
using the selection made by the user.  This way when the user starts typing and
he sees the value he wants in the list area, he presses tab to get to the next
control and the controls update.  It also allows the mouse selection to be made
as it moves the focus to another control when the selection is made. I use this
to bring up customer information when the customer name is selected from a combo
box.  This should be the same for dbList controls.
