Re: How to decrease size of combo box ?

I'm not sure exactly what you are asking, but if you are resizing the
control when you overlay it on the list control you could use MoveWindow()
and get the size of the cell to determine the size of the control that is
supposed to fit there or you could just create it in the right place and the
right size as in the article below. Since users can resize columns (if you
let them that is) you would want to resize your control appropriately when
that happens.

If you are just trying to resize the control in the resource editor you can
click on the outside box of the control to resize horizontally, or click on
the down arrow to resize the drop down list size.

This article is a little dated so the sample code may not compile without
some conversion, but the steps listed here are good and I think this may be
what you're trying to do. In any event, it should help you get started.
