Description Cor Nouws 2012-02-12 13:25:08 UTC 
- Open writer document with text and scroll a bit
  (this should fill the word completion list)
- Tools > Autocorrect > Word completion
- Try to put focus on the list 'collected words' with the key board
 > does not work
- click with mouse on an item in the list
- click on another item in the list
 > Click with mouse behaves as ctrl-Click :-)
- use arrow up/down key
 > making / changing selections by key board not possible

(has been broken as long as I remember. Maybe easy hack?)

I guess this could be an easy hack?

Thanks Christopher. Pls look at how it works in the 4.0 / master code line.
I did not check it in details, but while using it once, I go the impression at least part of the weird behaviour is solved.

To Reproduce:

1. Load a sample document into Writer.
2. Go to Tools > AutoCorrect Options.
3. Navigate to the Word Completion tab.
4. Observe that the word list cannot be selected by tabbing through controls.
4. Observe that left mouse clicks on the word list select multiple items.
5. Observe that the up/down cursor keys don't traverse through the word list.

To test:

1. Load a sample document into Writer.
2. Go to Tools > AutoCorrect Options.
3. Navigate to the Word Completion tab.
4. Observe that the word list can be selected by tabbing through controls.
4. Observe that left mouse clicks on the word list don't select multiple items.
5. Observe that the up/down cursor keys will traverse through the word list.
6. Observe that holding down control / shift and left clicking will select multiple values.

What I did: The MultiListBox was not initialized with the SimpleMode attribute set to True. Therefore, I added it.
