To All

I have noticed that the color of the combobox on Windows 10 turns a 'grey' color .. if one did not know, they would think the combobox was disabled. Here is the code .. any advice would be helpful.

Code: Select all | Expand


 REDEFINE COMBOBOX oTime  VAR cTime       ID 114 of oGrps ;
         ITEMS aTime
         oTime:lIncSearch = .T.

 REDEFINE COMBOBOX oTime_Back  var cTime_Back ID 117 of oGrps ;
         ITEMS aTime_Back
         oTime_Back:lIncSearch = .T.

It is a "feature" of W10. :-(
