Activate Drop Down list when "Include arrow" is active?

Is there any way to show the Drop Down list without the mouse, when "Include arrow to show and hide list" is active?

Example:

TheField has a Control Style set to Drop Down list with Include arrow to show and hide list.
My cursor is currently in TheField.
I want to activate the Drop Down menu without using the mouse.

 

A possible solution would be to have a copy of TheField below the other one. This copy would be set to Drop Down list, but with Include arrow un-checked. Then, create a Script that goes to this copy, thus activating the Drop Down list. However, I am intending to use this field in a portal, and it would be awful lot of copies of the fields, and other probems (naming the fields as objects, for example).

 

Any ideas?
