Hello Tom,

Thank you very very much; I follow your advice and it works.

I though that I need to input a number for the drop down hight.

Thank you.

It's the little arrow on the right that you would normally click on to drop
down the combo. If you click on it you will be able to expand the whole box
using the resizing rectangle that will appear (I.E., just click on square in
the middle and drag down).

Thanks for the response.

I couldn't find "drop section" in the property window for the combo box.

Thank you.

I agree with David. This shouldn't happen in the 2008 resource editor
since
it already makes it big enough for a couple of items so you see it, but
in
the past there was no drop down until you did it yourself so the first
time
people used the control they saw what you're seeing.

I'd bet if you scrolled using the arrow keys you'd see the items change
(if
they are really assigned to the combo).

You may want to turn off sorting too (in the properties) if you want the
items to display in the order you add them.

Hi,

I've added several strings into a combobox, but I did see only selected
item
when I clicked the dropdown button. (please see below sorce code. I
only
see
"A-" when I clicked the droupdown button)

Why i didn't see any other string such as "A+", "A", and etc?

Could you please advise me?

Thank you.
