automatic dropdown? [RESOLVED]

[brendalisalowe]

OK. I have a question about comboboxes. If I type some text into the combobox, I want it to be able to pull that text up into the text part of the combobox. Do you understand what I mean? When I type in it now, it will go to that place but won't pull it up to the text part of the combobox. Does anyone have any ideas on how to do that? Thanks!

Ok, so I went to this website:

It doesn't like this part:

If ((e.KeyCode = Keys.Back) Or _
    (e.KeyCode = Keys.Left) Or _
    (e.KeyCode = Keys.Right) Or _
    (e.KeyCode = Keys.Up) Or _
    (e.KeyCode = Keys.Delete) Or _
    (e.KeyCode = Keys.Down) Or _
    (e.KeyCode = Keys.PageUp) Or _
    (e.KeyCode = Keys.PageDown) Or _
    (e.KeyCode = Keys.Home) Or _
    (e.KeyCode = Keys.End)) Then
 
    Return
End If

The word 'KeyCode' has blue squiggley lines under it. Is there something I need to import or something?

Also, it doesn't like the KeyUp Event. Why?
