ToolStripComboBox .Width < 75?

MyndPhlyp

I would like a small DropDownList style ComboBox on the ToolStrip but it
seems VB 2005 is not going to let me set the .Width property to a value less
than 75 in Designer mode. Setting it programmatically has no effect. What's
the trick to getting a smaller DropDownList?

autosize = False

Certainly not intuitive. Can't wait to see what Seattle does with the *next*
edition of VB. They've pretty well mucked things up after VB6 but this is
going *far* beyond the call of duty.

Thanks again.
