Combo Boxes - Read only option?

I'm trying to setup a combo box on one of my forms that displays a list of employees from a table. I have the employees displaying and everything is working correctly. My only problem now is that the combo box is editable. I only want users to be able to select from the pull down list. Is there any read only option or some sort of property I can set on it to acheive this behavior?
 
If you go into the properties of the combobox, under the data tab, there is an item called "Limit to List," set this value to "yes" and then users can only use values in the list.

Hope that helps!
