Need help with ComboBox

[darzanmihai]

How could I create a ComboBox that is ENABLED, but the user can not write values into that Combo, just select values?

Use the $CBS_DROPDOWNLIST style attribute.

Use the $CBS_DROPDOWNLIST style attribute.

It is not what I wos looking for!

With the style you suggested, you still can write into the comboBox!

[zorphnog]

Post your code for creating the combo box. Just because you can't get it to work doesn't mean its wrong. I've used $CBS_DROPDOWNLIST hundreds of times. You should have something similar to this:

$cbFlag = GUICtrlCreateCombo("Boolean", 72, 152, 265, 25, BitOR($CBS_DROPDOWNLIST,$CBS_AUTOHSCROLL))
GUICtrlSetData(-1,"Array of matches|Array of matches including full match|Array of global matches|Array of global matches including full match","Array of global matches")

Maybe $ES_READONLY

Maybe $ES_READONLY

Not for a combobox, unless maybe you got the edit controls handle/id. zorphnog gave the OP what he is supposed to use for what they asked for.

I used only the CBS_DROPDOWNLIST.....now it works! Thank you!

!!!OMG!!! !!!Make sure you're using it correctly!!! (exclamation points don't need to be applied to every sentence)

Example:

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
AutoItSetOption("GUIOnEventMode",1)

$GUITitle = "GUI Template"
$GUIWidth = 120
$GUIHeight = 50

$GUI = GUICreate($GUITitle,$GUIWidth,$GUIHeight,(@DesktopWidth-$GUIWidth)/2,(@DesktopHeight - $GUIHeight)/2)
$combo = GUICtrlCreateCombo("",10,10,100,20,$CBS_DROPDOWNLIST)
GUICtrlSetData($combo,"Item 1|Item 2|Item 3")
GUISetState()

#Region Events list
GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE,"_ExitIt")
#EndRegion Events list

While 1
    Sleep(10)
WEnd


Func _ExitIt()
    Exit
EndFunc
