    Resolved [RESOLVED] Force wide list in combo

    I'm not sure this is possible in VB6 but it's worth asking. I have a combo box that contains a list that is wider than the control itself. This is done to give the user a bit more information about each choice to help them make the desired selection. Is it possible to have the dropdown list wider than the control in order to hold all the info? Once chosen, I strip the unnecessary info so the choice fits the combo control.

    TIA,
    Ken

    The code was posted a few days ago. A search should find it.
    The most difficult part of developing a program is understanding the problem.
    The second most difficult part is deciding how you're going to solve the problem.
    Actually writing the program (translating your solution into some computer language) is the easiest part.

    Please indent your code and use [HIGHLIGHT="VB"] [/HIGHLIGHT] tags around it to make it easier to read.

    Thanks ... initially I did a search but came up empty which is why I posted. Changed the search criteria and I found it.

    Sorry ...
