| DropDown |
Specifies that the list is displayed by clicking the down arrow and that the text portion is editable. This means that the user can enter a new value and is not limited to selecting an existing value in the list. When using this setting, the AutoCompleteMode.Append value of ComboBox.AutoCompleteMode works the same as the AutoCompleteMode.SuggestAppend value. This is the default style. |
| DropDownList |
Specifies that the list is displayed by clicking the down arrow and that the text portion is not editable. This means that the user cannot enter a new value. Only values already in the list can be selected. The list displays only if ComboBox.AutoCompleteMode is AutoCompleteMode.Suggest or AutoCompleteMode.SuggestAppend. |
