Validation in combo box

[thiya]

HI ALL:

 

In my application, I need to restrict the user to enter the keyboard input to the combo box.

 

when i was working in vb6 i had used the code:

 

keyascii=0 in keypress event of combo box

 

How can i acheive for vb.net combo box

 

thanks in advance

I think you're looking for:

 

e.Handled = True

 

(e is the event args object of the event)

 

...which essentially cancels the event (the key press). Any code you have in the event will execute, but they key press is surpressed.

Goto the combox properties and change "DropDownStyle" to DropDownList
