Why not change the style property of the combobox from fmStyleDropDownCombo
to fmStyleDropdownList. Then the user has to select from the list which will
of course be the list of acceptable values.
If you want to allow typing into the textbox region, then leave ti as
fmStyleDropDownCombo and and change the MatchRequired property to True.
from help on MatchRequired:
Specifies whether a value entered in the text portion of a ComboBox must
match an entry in the existing list portion of the control. The user can
enter non-matching values, but may not leave the control until a matching
value is entered.
