Dialog boxes
display more items from the list. You also can show or hide the list using ALT+DOWN
ARROW, ALT+UP ARROW, or F4. In all other respects it behaves like a normal single-
selection list box.
Extended selection list boxes support selecting single items, blocks of items, or
combinations of the two. After selecting an item as in a single-selection list box, hold
down
SHIFT+Navigation keys to select or deselect more items.
Multiple selection list boxes typically have comparatively long lists and more of these
items are expected to be chosen individually (not in blocks). Navigating to items does not
automatically select them nor does selecting an item change the status of other selections.
Press
SPACEBAR to select or deselect an item.
Combo-boxes and drop-down combo boxes are list boxes with attached edit boxes. You
can make your selection by either typing in the edit box or using the standard commands
to select from the list.
Table 3-5 summarizes the actions for keys in combo boxes:
Edit controls are rectangular boxes used for displaying or editing text. Use TAB or the
appropriate access key to move the focus to the edit control and select the text.
