Author [VW 5i.3] Problem with ComboBox under WinXP SP2
Volker Zink

We tested the old version of our application which is build with VW5i.3
for usage under Windows XP SP2 (our customer wants that). It seems to
work quite well, but the ComboBoxes dont work. They open and almost
immediately close. So it seems to be a similar behaviour as the Problem
with VW7.2 under SP2 (for which there is a patch available), but of
different origin. Does somebody know how to fix this?

I'd start by trying the 7.2 fix:
InputState>>send: window eventButtonPress: event
| focusWindow thisClick |
window isNil ifTrue: [^self].
