ComboBox right-click?


Can I add an option to the menu that is displayed for a right-click
on a ComboBox?

You can create your own Context menu by adding a context menu control to
your form and adding menu items to it and then setting the Context Menu
property for your DropDown Control to point to the Context Menu you just
created.

Does that make sense?

Yes, it does. Thanks! I'd tried that earlier, but something didn't work
quite right. I just tried it again and it worked as I expected and as you
said.

Thanks!
