Combobox menu button does not accept typing

[erikhans08]

My combobox menu button will not accept typing into the "field" part.
The typing just bounces right off.
After extensive googling, dictionary and forum searching... still no code or settings.

The extent of my menu button coding---this works with a pulldown menu:
on menuPick the_itemName // up to 100 lines
set the label of button "Move_Increment" of stack "Locations" to the_itemName
// more commands...
end menuPick

For remedial teaching purposes I would like to do this in one button.
Not a button with a list field until the next learning stage.

Thanks,
Erik Hansen

There's likely a script interfering somewhere. Is the button scripted? How about the card? Any keydown/keyup handlers somewhere in the path? Do you get the same results with a new combo box button dragged to the card?

No scripting but it is working with new buttons now.
Thanks
