awt.Choice - how to prevent automatic resizing?

Hi,
I have a Choice menu with some long names inside. The menu resizes itself
automatically to fit the length of the longest item, and ignores the size
I set to it by SetBounds().
How can I keep it with a fixed size? (when opening the menu the list can
get wider, just keep a fixed size when it's closed).
The automatic resizing messes up the look of my window...

thanks,
Noa

setting the layout manager to null?
