This article was previously published under Q172248 SYMPTOMS
With Visual Basic 5.0, prior to Visual Studio 97 Service Pack 2, the Change
event of the DBCombo control does not fire when the user makes a selection
from the drop down list. This behavior is different from previous versions
of Visual Basic.
STATUS

at the beginning of this article. This bug has been fixed in Visual Studio
97 Service Pack 2.

MORE INFORMATION
Please note: This change in behavior affects Visual Basic applications
built with both Visual Basic 4.0 (32-bit) and Visual Basic 5.0 because they
both use the same file, DBList32.ocx, for the DBCombo control. Once Visual
Studio 97 Service Pack 2 is installed, the problem no longer occurs.
