CComboBoxEx::CreateEx

Call this function to create an extended combo box control (a child window) and associate it with the CComboBoxEx object.

virtual BOOL CreateEx( 
   DWORD dwExStyle, 
   DWORD dwStyle, 
   const RECT& rect, 
   CWnd* pParentWnd, 
   UINT nID  
);

Parameters

  • dwExStyle
    Specifies the extended style of the control being created. For a list of extended Windows styles, see the dwExStyle parameter for CreateWindowEx in the Windows SDK.

  • dwStyle
    The combo box control's style. See Create for a list of styles.

  • rect
    A reference to a RECT structure describing the size and position of the window to be created, in client coordinates of pParentWnd.

  • pParentWnd
    A pointer to the window that is the control's parent.

  • nID
    The control's child-window ID.

Return Value

Nonzero if successful; otherwise 0.

Remarks

Use CreateEx instead of Create to apply extended Windows styles, specified by the Windows extended style preface WS_EX_.

CreateEx creates the control with the extended Windows styles specified by dwExStyle. You must set extended styles specific to an extended combo box control using SetExtendedStyle. For example, use CreateEx to set such styles as WS_EX_CONTEXTHELP, but use SetExtendedStyle to set such styles as CBES_EX_CASESENSITIVE. For more information, see the styles described in the topic ComboBoxEx Control Extended Styles in the Windows SDK.
