I've been waiting for this problem to be fixed in one of the new releases with no luck.
I have the recent version of Telerik ASP.NET AJAX Q2 2013 With SP1
Here is the problem:
Markup:
<telerik:RadComboBox ID="MyRadCombo" runat="server" Skin="Office2007" MarkFirstMatch="True"
        Width="405px">
     <Items>
        <telerik:RadComboBoxItem runat="server" Text="Action Date" Value="Action Date" />
        <telerik:RadComboBoxItem runat="server" Text="Date Seized" Value="Date Seized" />
        <telerik:RadComboBoxItem runat="server" Text="Date Soft" Value="Date Soft" />
        <telerik:RadComboBoxItem runat="server" Text="Dispo Type" Value="Dispo Type" />
        <telerik:RadComboBoxItem runat="server" Text="Dispo Kind" Value="Dispo Kind" />
     </Items>
</telerik:RadComboBox>
Code Behind:
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
     if
(!Page.IsPostBack)

 
MyRadCombo.Focus();
}
Suppose I want to select 'Dispo Type', I would use the keyboard to type 'Dispo Type'. Here is what I get when I type the first letter 'D':


Now, I'm not able to fetch 'Dispo Type' because the auto-complete function already decided to add the letter 'a' without any good reason. So I need to hit backspace twice and then the auto-complete function would work fine. Note that this problem does happen only just after the first postback.

Thank you,

Hi Plammen. It's been 3 years since I reported this. When can we expect it to be fixed?

Hello,

I have inspected the issue once again and noticed that it was fixed for Q3 2014 SP1 version of the controls. I have also tested it with the latest version and it worked correctly at my side.

Yes. That's right. The code I posted was a simplified sample that I created on a side. However, the actual code that's breaking on my end does not use:
MyRadCombo.Focus()
. It rather uses:
RadScriptManager1.SetFocus(DDLHelpTopic.ClientID + "_Input").

Another case the problem occurs is when I set the focus from JavaScript. Like so:

window.onload = function () {
       $find($telerik.$("[id$='DDLHelpTopic']").attr("id")).get_inputDomElement().focus();
};

Hello,

Yes indeed -in such scenarios we recommend using the .Focus() server method of the control in order to focus its input initially.
