Hi.
I have a Windows form and when it loads focus should be on a combo box. This works correctly but the visual indicator (dotted rectangle) does not appear on the combo box though it has focus. I can confirm that the focus is there as I am able to select using the arrow keys.
I have tried using combobx.Focus() and combobx.Select() but none of them worked.
Can someone please help and advise.
Thanks

Hi tinstaafl,
Thanks for replying.
The border does not change color as you mentioned.
I am using Windows 7 Enterprise. Is it problem with the Windows Scheme? Because if I run the same application on Windows XP, I can see the dotted rectangle on the combo box.
