    Hi Yasser,

    If I get it correctly, your current problem now is that the combobox unable to choose for the people with the same first letter name, ex: for Amany, Asmaa, Ahmed, Amgad, if we press A, it directly collapse without give opportunity to choose another one.

    Here is my try to solve it (I have upload the file too) :

    Hi,

    What do you think about Arkadi's code ? It looked that this is the one you need.
