Style Tab, Combo Box Builder

  • Artigo

The Style tab in the Combo Box Builder specifies special effects, drop-down combo, drop-down list, and incremental searching support for the combo box. The other Combo Box Builder tabs are: List Items tab, Layout tab, and Value tab.

When you choose OK, the builder closes, applying all the property settings from every tab to the control.

  • Three-dimensional
    Specifies a left and top edge highlight and a right and lower edge shadow for the combo box.
  • Plain
    Specifies that the combo box is an unshadowed box on the form. Three-dimensional and Plain determine the value of the SpecialEffect property.
  • Drop-down Combo
    Specifies that the combo box will be a drop-down combo, where the user can click the drop-down arrow to see a list of choices or enter a new item directly in the text box. This option corresponds to setting the Style property to 0.
  • Drop-down List
    Specifies that the combo box will be a drop-down list, where the user may select only from the list. This option corresponds to setting the Style property to 2.
  • Yes, Enable Incremental Searching
    Specifies whether the control tries to match an item in the list as the user types each letter. This option corresponds to setting the IncrementalSearch property.
  • No, Don't Enable Incremental Searching
    Disables incremental searching so that each keystroke initiates a search for a beginning character.
