Hi All.
I have a problem with combobox, what I want is when combobox gets focus I need it to show the dropdown list
t.This is fine if the user selects the combobox via keystrokes but when the combobox is selected via mouse click it draws
the dropdown list twice. As I am trapping the enter event, I can see thats is called as well some other ?
the style is set to dropdownlist as they must select one from the list
I assume I must trap a mouse event so it doesn't draw the dropdown list because I will be in the enter event, but which one?
thanks for any input.
Code below.
P.S I did post this question to m.p.d.f.winforms but did not receive any replies.
