Hi all, Iive found this bug int the VB combobox and I'd like to know if
there is a way to solve it...
Put a combobox in a form, and fill it with these 3 items:
- athens
- berlin
- chicago
then launch the program and enter in the form containing the combo. Click on
the arrow near the combo, so the dropdown list under the combo appears and
the 3 items are showed. Now, write the letter 'a' in the combo and then
click somewhere on the form WITHOUT selecting an item of the combobox. You
will see that the dropdownlist disappears and the text 'athens' is showed
and selected in the combo. So is the first item of the combo selected? No!
If you check the SelectedIndex property, the value is still -1.
Resuming, it seems there are problems when you write something in the combo
while the dropdown list is showed...
Is it a known bug? Is there a workaround?
Thanks

I can confirm this behaviour. I think you can say that this is analogous to
having aborted the operation because you clicked outside the control.
This behaviour remains consistant in VS2005

Claudio,
you can also break it by selecting an item and releasing the mouse off the
combo.
This is particularly apparent when running under Citrix - aaargh

But if the operation is aborted, then the text in the combo should remain
the one I've written (in my example, 'a'), and not completed with one of the
item in the combo when i click outside the control... I don't think this is
a correct behaviour

You may not think so, but as I say, VS2005 behaves the same way. I think you
can view it as the Item is focused but not selected.

I've looked high and low for some code that will allow me to have a combobox
with a flat borderstyle. I found a few examples, but nothing that was
really usable for me. I had the following criteria that I wanted to meet,
but nothing did:
- No reliance on a separate library
- No unmanaged code
- Easy subclassing of System.Windows.Forms.Combobox (i.e. no custom control
monstrosity)
- No extra funky features that I didn't need

Hi-
I've seen this problem discussed a jillion times but I cannot seem to
implement any advice that makes it work. I am porting a large project from
VB6 to .NET. The issue is using the combo box bound to a table as a lookup,
drawing values from another table to populate the available selections. This
all worked fine in VB6.
I have distilled the problem down to a simple form drawing data from the

Ciao a tutti,
leggendo qua e là per il forum ho scoperto che non sono l'unico ad
avere questo problema.
Se si inserisce un controllo ComboBox in un form di C#, non è
possibile impostare la sua altezza ad un valore diverso da 21. Forse,
cambiando la dimensione del font, si potrebbe riuscire a cambiare anche
l'impostazione dell'altezza... (MS farebbe comunque meglio ad
introdurre per il ComboBox una proprietà AutoSize impostabile a

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
