I use a help provider on a form, using keywordindex as the search property.
It works perfectly, opening up the .chm and the appropriate topic. But
something else happens: if the focus was on a combobox when F1 is struck,
the combobox first drops down and then the help opens. Any ideas as to what
causes this and if I can avoid the combobox dropdown in any way?

Thanks for your help.
