Hi,
I would like to build my own controls from the ground up. Just as if the
Combobox didn't excist and I wanted to create this 'new control' with all is
glorious functionality. Is there a technology used for this purpose in .net.
If you are doing this as a learning exercise, then I would follow
Peter's suggestion and get a copy of Reflector.
If you have a particular application in mind, then I would suggest
that this type of thing is going to be much easier in WPF / Avalon
than in the current Windows Forms as it appears in .NET. Get your
hands on a beta copy of Visual Studio Orcas and start reading up on
Windows Presentation Framework. It allows far more control over
customization of controls than does Windows Forms. (The only catch is
that it's beta... or 1.0, depending upon how you want to look at it.)
