In the EnhComponents available from the registered users site is a
component called TIB_ComboBoxEnh. It can do things like the
key-by-key searching that you are looking for (it does not use the
Windows API combo control, it creates its own).

Before you do, try putting the KeyLinks entry into the KeyDescLinks
(as well). When lookupcombo is on the grid it uses the KeyDescLinks
to match with the grid column. So if your combo does not really need
a separate KeyDescLinks, then copying KeyLinks may solve the problem.
(And later we may be able to extend the processing to do this
automatically.)
