Hi Attila,
You'll need to write your own custom control since .NetCF doesn't support
custom drawing for the combo box control. This isn't a very simple task,
but you can start with a custom control sample of an owner-drawn listbox
here:

ox.aspx
For the popup portion of the combo box, I'd recommend using a popup form
(BorderStyle = None).
Hope this helps,
-Katie

| Is it possible to add HScrollBar to a combo box in .NET Compact
| Framework? The problem is, that I have really long text in the combo
| box control and I'd like to have an HScrollBar added to the combo box
| when the user clicks on the down arrow on the control and the options
| pop up.
| I know this is possible overriding the OnPaint() method of the combo
| box control. Can somebody post a code sample or direct me to a page
| where I learn more about this?
| Any help is appreciated.
