Combo drop down length

marcp · 19th January 2006, 15:14

Is there a way to restrict the length of the list of a combo drop down list.

Eg show only 6 items and if more entries show scrollbar.

I now have a combo with lots of entries and it show by default 30 entries...

The Bottom attribute sets the height of the list on Win 9x. However, this does not work on Win XP (or 2000 perhaps) as the newer OS manages the number of items to be shown itself.

XP will set the height even if you don't specify a height. on win9x/ME/2k you have to specify the height though on XP it should still follow what you set
