Combo drop downs not appearing

Hi

I have a swf with a combo box in it (not created dynamicall). All is when I publish and run the swf by doing ctrl+enter.

When I publish and double click the swf to test all is well

However when I upload the combox box doesn’t allow me to click and get the drop downs to appear. A green glow appears around the component when I click on it - so I think its getting focus

I have tried using form.howFind_cmb.enabled=true (which I know is pointing correctly)

What do I need to do to get the combo box to work?

thanks

E
