Further Question: There is a 'downclick event' method - is there no way to
invoke it programmatically?

I've seen this question asked before and I reviewed what I could find on
Deja News but nothing seems to be doing the trick.
Can anyone tell me how to programmatically drop the list portion of a
combobox down?
Thanks!

You can certainly call the event code with obj.DownClick(), but this
won't cause the *event* to fire, it just executes the code.

I must be having a muddled-head day. Doesn't the default method code drop
down the list box? If not, what does it do?

No, it doesn't drop the list box. It is code which is executed when
the user drops the list box.
IOW, it is not a trigger which causes the event to occur; it is a
reaction to an event having occurred. As a related example, a command
button visually changes when you click on it with the mouse, and then any
code in its Click() event is executed. If you manually call the button's
Click() event code from somewhere else in your program, the code will
run, but you won't see the button visually "click".
