I want to create a customized ComboBox where the methods ComboBox.Items.Add
and ComboBox.Items.Insert will behave thusly:
-- If the item is not present, add it.
-- If the item is present, set the selected index to the item (without
adding a duplicate).
I know the basics of inheriting from user controls, so if this was merely
overriding a method of ComboBox I could do it. I also know how to do this
with a couple lines of code in my main application. What I do not know, and
would like to, is how to put a new user control wrapper around an existing
ComboBox, overriding methods of its Items collection? I reviewed the MSDN
documentation to no avail.
