Visual Basic, ComboBox with Style set as DropDown List: Problem.

ComboBox with Style set as DropDown List: Problem.

Author	Message
Sean Lern #1 / 4	ComboBox with Style set as DropDown List: Problem. When you set the .Style property for a ComboBox to 2-DropDown List, the .Text property becomes read-only. Is there any way to manipulate the Text area of the Combo Box without the user physically selecting an item from the Combo Box's list?. Say for example, I wanted to start one of the items off as a default. Thanks. Sean
