Well I only actually use my on LookupEnh control, and it does not even
have an OnNotInList event! (Something that has been requested several
times, but its something that the Enh control would have great
trouble supporting). My lookups always select the nearest.

So no I dont think its useful, but obviously others disagree. I
understand the requirement for OnNotInList (even if I dont entirely
agree with it for my own purposes), however I do not understand the
requirements for indicating that a search has failed. If it fails
then when you hit enter or exit the control goes blank. (Even better,
just have it search for the nearest match :-)

Given that I obviously dont understand the importance or relevance
perhaps it would be better if someone that does attempted such a
change.

No. Sorry I have only limited time, the code I posted works and thats
good enough for me. If someone wants it embedded feel free :-)
