How do I make a combobox stay open after an item is selected in C#?
I want to do this because it is actually a comboBox with a checklist so I can select several items.

Use a
ListBoxinstead of a ComboBox. What you want to do (keep a ComboBox open even after the user has selected a choice) would be unusual and unexpected behavior.Update: I think this sample will let you do what you want (which is to have a multi-select list that only takes up the form real estate of one control):
