I am writing a user control and have encountered a problem. I need to create
a property that will provide the user with several property value choices
that will appear in a drop-down list similar to that for the form
"BackgroundColor" property. My property will be a listing of strings. How do
I code this in the Set and Get areas for the creation of this property ? I
appreciate any help that can be provided.

Hi,

The following code will get you a regular dropdown with value. But
without tabs or images in the drop down:

Dim testingVariable As testing
    Public Property DropdownProperty() As testing
        Get
            Return testingVariable
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As testing)
            testingVariable = value
        End Set
    End Property

    Public Enum testing
        Value1
        Value2
        Value3
    End Enum


The property drop down would have value1,value2, and value3. If you are
interested in a more complex ones, take a look at this link:
