The problem is that HTML defines no such element, so ASP.NET can't really
create one. We've been wishing that HTML had a combobox ever since HTML
began, I think, and it still doesn't. It is possible, using positioning and
client side script to place a text box on top of a list box and more or less
mimick a combo box, and I suppose one could write a server control that
would do this. However, I have yet to see an implementation of this idea
that is anything but kludgy. My best advice is to think of another way to
design your UI so that you don't need a combo box.

is there a combo box that a user can key something in or select from the
drop down list? i added the webcontrol drop down but there is no property to
allow the user to key into the text portion of the control.
thanks
