Combo editing

How can a dropdown type(0) Combo make items non addable.
I want the user to pick the items from the popup list only. No adding/editing
items.

0.Dropdown Combo
1.Simple Combo
2.Dropdown List

Use 2. Dropdown list

Mr. Yang,

Thanks for the reply. Yes I tried that and got the following message while
choosing from the list of items. I'm using a databound ADO. What is this
message for?

**************************************************************
Binding collection error.
Field not updatable;Bound property name text; Fieldname; str_fldname
**************************************************************

"rkbnair" -

Mr. Yang is correct. The error happening because you haven't set up the
databound combo box properly. It is saying that the Field is not
updatable - check your bindings.
