CB_DELETESTRING message

Deletes a string in the list box of a combo box.

Parameters

wParam

The zero-based index of the string to delete.

lParam

This parameter is not used.

Return value

The return value is a count of the strings remaining in the list. If the wParam parameter specifies an index greater than the number of items in the list, the return value is CB_ERR.

Remarks

If you create the combo box with an owner-drawn style but without the CBS_HASSTRINGS style, the system sends a WM_DELETEITEM message to the owner of the combo box so the application can free any additional data associated with the item.
