Gerry Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Hi All I created a Gui with a few Combo boxes, and then populated them with data. How do I stop the user from changing this data and only able to select from I options provided by me? Gerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Melba23 Posted September 27, 2011 Moderators Share Posted September 27, 2011 Gerry, Use the $CBS_DROPDOWNLIST style ("Displays a static text field that displays the current selection in the list box"): #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <ComboConstants.au3> $hGUI = GUICreate("Test", 500, 500) $hCombo = GUICtrlCreateCombo("", 10, 10, 200, 20, $CBS_DROPDOWNLIST) GUICtrlSetData(-1, "1|2|3|4|5", "3") GUISetState() While 1 Switch GUIGetMsg() Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Exit EndSwitch WEndNot the most intuitive description, but it is what MSDN gives us!

Gerry Posted September 27, 2011 Author Share Posted September 27, 2011 Hi Thanks for your response, it worked. I had the following line: $Combo2 = GUICtrlCreateCombo("", 147, 47, 100, 25, BitOR($CBS_DROPDOWN, $CBS_AUTOHSCROLL)) which I then with a quick glance converted to : $ComboPrnType2 = GUICtrlCreateCombo("", 147, 47, 100, 25, $CBS_DROPDOWN) I then tested it and of course it did not work and I was ready to shout! After carefully rechecking your response noted your said $CBS_DROPDOWNLIST and not $CBS_DROPDOWN LOL, thanks for your help, I appreciate it. May the Springboks win the Rugby World Cup!

Moderators Melba23 Posted September 27, 2011 Moderators Share Posted September 27, 2011 Gerry,You will probably still need to use BitOR - the Setting Styles tutorial in the Wiki explains why.
