combo box's dropdown list

Guest

Hi,

Is it possible to disable/enable the combo box's dropdown list (i.e. disable
the arrow on the right) without toggling the box's Enable property?

Because if I do, the whole box greyed out, but I'd really prefer the box not
to be greyed out, and yet still not giving user the option to open the
dropdown list until they click an edit button which then unlocks all fields.

Thanks in advance

Set the combo Enabled property to No AND it's Locked property to Yes.
