Morning All!
I have a minor but irritating problem with UDF comboboxes. I need to display a long text item for user to have correct information in selection, but do not need to display it all after selection. my annoyance is that after selection the content is always displayed right justified even tho the alignment property is set to left. so the selection is displayed as partial text and trailing empty space making it difficult for the user to read what has been selected. is there a trick i can use to display the contents properly. sorry. a picture would have told a thousand words :(
TIA
