Hi,

Using this Multiline
Combobox(http://www.vbcity.com/forums/faq.asp?fid=15&cat=ListBox%2FComboBox#TID58434),
doesn't allow the user to type multi line text in the texbox-part of the
combobox. Does anybody has any idea how to achieve this? What should I
override to draw a multiline-textbox instead oth the default textbox?

Thanks a lot in advance,

Pieter

Pieter,

Windows Forms comboboxes use Windows combobox control, which doesn't support
multiline editing. It is not possible to be achieved with the standard WF
control. There are third party control libraries you should try to find out
if any of them provide this functionality.
