I should note that I'm implementing this ... but that should not interfear with this ?

private void _ugTab3ProjectSettings_KeyPress(object sender, KeyPressEventArgs e)
        {
            // r is both ENTER keys
            if (e.KeyChar == '\r')
            {
                _ucTab3ProjectPhaseEditable.Focus();
                _btnTab3SaveProject.BackColor = Color.Yellow;
            }
        }

I changed it to UltraDropDown ... doesn't seem to matter.

Alt + Down doesn't to anything ... the UltraDropDown is at the bottom row in my Grid, so if I push alt+down the UltraDropDown goes out of focus ( exits edit-mode if you like ) ... and F4 opens up the UltraDropDown ...

private void FillProjectsComboBox()
        {
            Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.UltraGridRow activeRow = this._ucTab1TeamResources.SelectedRow;
            Employee employee = new Employee();
            employee.EmployeeID = System.Convert.ToInt32(activeRow.Cells[0].Text);
            Kaupthing.ResPlanner.Data.UtilityClasses.Criteria criteria = new Kaupthing.ResPlanner.Data.UtilityClasses.Criteria();
            criteria.DisplayStartDate = this._displayStartDate;
            criteria.DisplayMonthCount = this._displayMonthCount;
            SortableCollection<Project> projects = DataProviders.ResPlannerDetails.GetAllUnAllocatedProjects(employee, criteria);
            this._ucUnallocatedProjects = new Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.UltraDropDown();
            this._ucUnallocatedProjects.DataSource = projects;
            this._ucUnallocatedProjects.ValueMember = "ProjectID";
            this._ucUnallocatedProjects.DisplayMember = "ProjectName";
            this._ucUnallocatedProjects.Rows.Band.Columns["ProjectID"].Hidden = true;
            this._ucUnallocatedProjects.Rows.Band.Columns["ProjectStatus"].Hidden = true;
            this._ucUnallocatedProjects.Rows.Band.Columns["AccountManager"].Hidden = true;
            this._ucUnallocatedProjects.Rows.Band.Columns["ProjectManager"].Hidden = true;
            this._ucUnallocatedProjects.Rows.Band.Columns["ProjectEndDate"].Hidden = true;
            this._ucUnallocatedProjects.Rows.Band.Columns["ProjectName"].Header.Caption = "";
            this._ucUnallocatedProjects.Rows.Band.Columns["ProjectName"].SortIndicator = Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.SortIndicator.Disabled;

            this._ucUnallocatedProjects.Width = 300;
            this._ucUnallocatedProjects.DisplayLayout.AutoFitStyle = Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.AutoFitStyle.ExtendLastColumn;
            this._ucUnallocatedProjects.RowSelected += new Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.RowSelectedEventHandler(_ucUnallocatedProjects_RowSelected);

        }

void _ucUnallocatedProjects_RowSelected(object sender, Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.RowSelectedEventArgs e)
        {
            try
            {
                if (null == e.Row)
                    return;
                this._ugTab1EmployeeAllocation.ActiveRow.Cells["ProjectID"].Value = e.Row.Cells["ProjectID"].Value;               
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                MessageBox.Show("Error Occured : Employee Allocation : Projects loading -- " + ex.Message);
            }
        }

and in the Initialize_Row:

e.Row.Cells["ProjectName"].ValueList = this._ucUnallocatedProjects;

Can I email you directy ?
