Usage Notes
■ A combo box combines the features of a text box with the features of a
list box. The user can make a selection by either:
• Typing text into the text box
• Selecting an item from the list below the text box
See: ◄List Box Control► ◄Text Box Control►
■ Use the Style property to determine the behavior of the edit and list
portions of a combo box. See: ◄Style Property►
■ When an item in the drop-down list is selected, the string is entered
in the text box. Use the ADDITEM and REMOVEITEM methods to add and
remove strings from the list portion of the combo box at run time.
See: ◄ADDITEM Method► ◄REMOVEITEM Method►
■ The minimum size of a combo box is 1 x 5; dimensions correspond to the
Height and Width property settings. Only the width of the list portion
of a combo box can be changed; the height of a combo box control is
read-only. See: ◄Height Property► ◄Width Property►
