I'm fairly new to VB and I'm stuck using VB4, but I all I'm after is a DBCombo control that responds to my mouse clicks in my .exe. I can run in debug mode and use the combo control just like any other... click... list drops down... click... select an item. However, when I build an .exe and run it, the dbcombo control won't let me select an item using my mouse. I can select items just fine using the keyboard, but it won't respond to my mouse clicks to select an item.


What gives?


Any thoughts, advice, help greatly appreciated.


Thanks

I think you should check the MS knowledge base...

I've heard from several people that VB4 is quite buggy, so maybe you run into one... and if it's a bug indeed, maybe you can download a newer version of some controls

Take a look in the MS-Knowledgebase. Article-number Q150210. This gives you a workaround for the problem. It only happens on modal forms.
