Hello everyone. I have a combo box in my form with 7 string items. The days of the week.
I don't want the user to be able to add items that's why i have set DropDownStyle to DropDownList. The ForeColor of the items in the combo box is SaddleBrown.
When the form loads the first item is always selected but the fore color instead of SaddleBrown is Black. And everytime I select a day(item) of the combobox the fore color of the current sected item is always black. Is there a way to fix that to the SaddleBrown and how? Any help will be much appreciated. Thank you so much in advanced.
Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
ComboBox1.SelectedIndex = 0
End Sub
I tried with no effect
Protected Sub Combobox1_DrawItem(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DrawItemEventArgs) Handles ComboBox1.DrawItem
e.Graphics.DrawString(ComboBox1.Text, ComboBox1.Font, New SolidBrush(Color.SaddleBrown), e.Bounds)
End Sub
