Horizontal bar in ComboBox???

[Mark_Meng]

I found some very nice code from VB world which will allow me to create a combobox which can expand to the maxium length of my list. However, to me that is not good enough. Is there a way that I can put Horizontal bar in the Combobox's drop down list? Thanks very much.

You could extend with width of the dropdown instead

Thanks very much, actually I saw those code before. But the problem I have is because my text in Combobox is too long, it will reach out of screen. That why I think about scrollbar.

As combos and listboxs are very similar, you could try this

That is whay I thought too. But the code only work for Listbox not combobox. I don't know why. Thanks very much

I think I may catch the hwnd for the drop down of Combo box. Then I may be able to sendmessage with scrollbar to it. But I don't know how to catch the hwnd of the drop down list of the combo box. Please help
