Limiting Editing of ComboBox

[Grax]

I've populated a combo box with the necessary options to select from. Is there any way to may it so the user can selected any of the options but can not modify them, which effectively creates a new one?

Thanks,

Andrew

for the "style" parameter, use:

$CBS_DROPDOWNLIST

Thanks... Just figured that out!

Problem, this options doesn't allow you to scroll through all the options. One of my lists is nearly 100 long.

Can't remember to whom the credit for this method goes, but this example should take care of it:

$combo = GUICtrlCreateCombo("", 25, 225, 217, 25, BitOR($CBS_DROPDOWNLIST, $WS_VSCROLL))
GUICtrlSendMsg($combo,$CB_SETMINVISIBLE,15,0)

And just change out $combo with your combobox's variable

This sets the drop down window size (Length), but it still doesn't allow scrolling. Setting to 100 or so is not practical.

Nevermind... I missed part of the code. Works great!
