selection box with restricted item

[gordon]

Hi

I have a combo box in a windows form that i want a user to select from the
list of items

How can i prevent the user from typing something apart from my items list in
the combo box? Is there a better way or a better control to use??


Thanks

Doug

Set the DropDownStyle property to DropDownList.
