Forcing combo box to drop down

[Kevin]

I am trying to get a combo box to automatically dropdown. I have tried using
both

me.cboComboName .Dropdown
and
SendKeys "{F4}"

in the OnEnter, OnGotFocus and OnClick events and none seem to work. If I
put the cursor in cboComboName on the form and press F4, it drops down but
no go with code. Whats Up??
