Read Only ComboBox

Quirks of Framework 2.0

Read Only ComboBox

by  Qik3Coder  Posted    (Edited  )
I searched the web all day yesterday for how to get a standard combo box to be readonly. There were API calls, SendMessage examples, swapping out the combobox with a textbox.

If you need/want your combo box to be readonly you just set the DropDownStyle property to DropDownList.

I don't know why they couldn't use the readonly property like everyone else.

Just an FYI,
