Default Selecting only from index for combobox

Hello,

I want the users can be able to select only from the values in combobox index.

Typing would not be allowed in combobox. I comboboxes can be used as
textboxes. But i do not want it...

Match required function does not do what i want, still users are enabled to
type a text but they are warned after if the text is not same as one of the
value in index.

I want them they would not be able to type anything, just can select...
(well, i do not want to be any curser in typing place :))

Thanks...

Try changing the .Style of the combobox to fmStyleDropDownList.
