Default Listboxes and select items in it

Sorry skid but I haven't figured it out yet. The good people on this
forum apparently also not.

What I think to know now is that it simply aint possible. You can only
see a non selected item if the listbox has focus. The problem is when
it has focus you can't type.

For anyone else reading, Yeah yeah yeah, I know about the MatchEntry
property. The problem with it though is it aint working. Apart from
that you can't get its typed characters in an editable listbox.

If only there would have been the VB GotFocus and LostFocus instead of
the louzy VBA Enter and Exit events.

Best regards,

Leon
