Question

In a Windows Form Application, I have a ComboBox1 which gets initialized in InitializeComponent() function. I add the values into it in a different function.

snippet:

    public form1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
        addDataToDropDowns();
    }

The problem I have is that, the rows loaded into the ComboBox1 have many characters(/length) and are not to be seen completely width wise.

Is it possible to have a horizontal scrollbar built into the ComboBox1 so that I can see the hidden part of the row too…??

Any ideas/inputs will be appreciated!

Thanks,
Ivar

That has code sample that shows how to capture the event and widen the box.

OR, you could have it as a seperate function you manually call, like this:
