Single arrow to drop down list - list box
« on: February 23, 2007, 02:31:42 PM »
I can't seem to find where to issue this.  I have a list box, put I want to be able to drop it down and select items from it.  I didn't use a combo box because I don't want the user to be able to type anything.  Am I using the wrong control item?

Thanks in advance.  I feel stupid on this one.  :oops:

DropDownStyle of the ComboBox is what you need me thinks.

you can set the properties of a combo box so the user cannot edit the contents

Thanks you guys.  I did it with a combo box, and it works.  I thought you could do it with a list box, but I was wrong.  :-)
