I would like to find out which property I need to set so users can not type
in a combo box but only select the text in the predefined list.
 
Darren,

Set the Limit to List property to Yes. This won't stop users from
typing, but typed values which don't exist in the list aren't accepted.
The typing is a good-to-have feature, in that it offers look ahead
functionality (when Limit to List is on), and can be very useful in the
case of lond lists with hundreds or thousands or rows (e.g. customer names).

HTH,
Nikos
