Description Randy Hudson CLA 2004-03-16 13:49:20 EST
In the property sheet, ALT+DOWN does not drop down the list of choices for a 
CCombo. (First press ENTER to realize the CellEditor's CCombo).

I did no test CCombos in general, only in the property sheet.

CAR to quickly investigate the standard Combo keys for various platforms and 
then most likely implement ALT+DOWN.  The bottom line is that CCombo is not 
accessible so this needs to be fixed.  We are under no obligation to use any 
particular keystroke because CCombo is an emulated control however we don't 
want to deviate from the standard.

Note that Return is not a good choice because it is used by the default button 
and also SWT.DefaultSelection.

Fixed > 20040318 to work the way Windows Combo works for ALT+UP/DOWN_ARROW.
