EVALUATION This is a bug and it has been annoying me for some time. It needs to be fixed. tom.santos@eng 1998-09-29 Will not fix. I don't see this as a bug. The popup portion should not exceed the width of the visible portion of the combo box. The submitter and evaluator (one and the same) doesn't offer a constructive suggestion. mark.davidson@Eng 2000-02-24
