The ComboBox.DropDownStyle property has a type of ComboBoxStyle, which is an
enumeration. According to the MSDN docs, this enum has three values:
DropDown, DropDownList and Simple. However, I am not able to compile with a
value of DropDown.

Is this value not supported in the Compact Framework?
If not, why? And how can I create a combobox that allows the user to type
in the text box?

Thanks

That is correct, the Compact Framework control supports only DropDownList.
You can either build a custom control or use some combination of TextBox and
ComboBox to allow the user to enter text.
